      Hi guys. I've been reading all the posts about Ginny lately & 
it sure seems like y'all are really being too hard her.  As the 
youngest child of a middle-sized family, I honestly say that I 
sympathize with Ginny.  I don't see her behavior on Platform 9 3/4 
immature at all.  All her life she's always had someone at home with 
her, much like me.  Now her last & closest brother Ron is leaving 
home to got to school away fom her (much like my sister).  It's not 
like he can come home everyday & visit her.  When she goes back home 
from the station, there's going to be no one to talk to.  The only 
ones there are now Mom & Dad.  So of couse she would be upset now 
that Ron's leaving her alone at home. (BTW, I would love to join a 
Ginny defense group.) But I really think Ginny is going to be a very 
good person.  To others, she may seem boring right now, but that's 
only because we've only just even met her.  I'm convinced we haven't 
heard the last of her.  I'm absolutely positive that we'll meet her 
personally (or at least more in depth)in the 3 books to come. Until 
then...

       Now, my other point, sibling relationships.  I can tell you as 
a fact(and trust me this is so very true)no matter how much they will 
deny it, all siblings really care about each other.  Sure they may 
argue & fight, but if something would ever happen to one of them, 
(i.e. Ginny being trapped in the CoS, Percy thinking Ron drowned or 
something)they'd be really upset &/or want to do something about it.  
(i.e. Ron & Harry went after Ginny, Percy hugged Ron when he got out 
the lake.)

Well, that's it. What do you think? I'm very open. Try to convince me 
otherwise.
