[QUOTE="Edena_of_Neith, post: 3101177, member: 2020"] Can you go in-depth here? What makes Harry stronger than Hermione? I asked this above, and ask again. I just wish to hear what you have to say here. Please. I realize the story might be less interesting if Snape and Harry made up. But I think it reflects badly on them both that they refuse to do so. Wielding great power means shouldering great responsibility, to use the old clique. So, it's about time Harry and Snape started shouldering said responsibility, and cut it with the immaturity (ala, 5 points from both Slytherin and Griffindor Houses, each day, every day, until you two decide to GROW UP. We've got a Voldemort problem to deal with, or didn't you get the memo? :) ) Well ok, we've got a Suspension of Disbelief here. And obviously, a school of magic is going to be dangerous. Again, though, since Rowling is dealing so heavily in allegory I thought it worth mentioning. After all, children remember being hurt and are traumatized by such memories, even if they are healed from those injuries. It's just a musing on my part. Would I send my children to Hogwart's, if I was a parent and I lived in that hypothetical world? Good question. I wouldn't want my children injured over and over, yet if I do not send them I deny them their heritage, and Voldemort kills them maybe. Yet I don't want my children damaged again and again. Not an easy choice for me to make ... [/QUOTE]
