Harry and the Dursleys.

Quick question for everyone...

Has anyone else wondered why Harry stays with the Dursleys? 
Supposedly Rowling said she would reveal that in the fifth book. I 
don't know if this has already been discussed, but think about it: he 
can stay with Ron and the Weasleys, or Hermione's family for that 
matter. 

So, it begs the question, why? I have a few theories...

1)The Dursleys are his only remaing family members, aside from
Sirius. 
And since he can't stay with him, perhaps he feels that his parents 
would want him to stay with family. Weak, I know.

2)Well, I don't really have any other theories besides that. Which 
comes to the reason for the posting...

Why would Harry stay with people who treat him so poorly? I'm really 
at a loss over this one. I've been thinking and thinking and thinking 
about why he would stay with them, and that's all I've come up with. 

I know it's not terribly creative, this is why I need other people 
ideas. Let me know what you think everyone! :)

PS, I absolutely LOVE "Quidditch.." and "Fantastic Beasts..."!!! 
They're so full of humor, it just makes me chuckle!
