R Draco's Redemption

[Lumen]

No: HPFGUIDX 25362

Well, we know that redemption is one of the themes of the book(s).  I call them book(s) since she has seen them as a whole from the beginning as all the interviews assure us.  It is that very desire for redemption that gives the books their moral quality...again, JKR asserts that her books are highly moral, and I certainly agree with her.  She is not going to be at odds with her theme nor her heart by killing off Draco.  Since she has stated in one interview that Dudley is just as abused as Harry, although in a different way (amazing thing is that she feels the children understand that Dudley is abused by his parents; she has such respect for the ability of children to penetrate), how much more so is Draco an "abused" child.  

I did a "marginal" on this at the site, and don't want to overload the list, but for those interested

What will be his redemption?  Perhaps just to be a symbol of the need for redemption and how evil victimizes the innocent: somehow killed by Voldemort, betrayed even by his father.  Remeber Ron's line..."Pity his mother likes him..."  How much more the mother that Rowling is for her "children".

P.S.  There will soon be a great selection of animated Hogwarts cursors going up.  Try it in a week or so.
