 Pippin

I have never noticed any condescension on the part of Molly or Arthur 
Weasley.  In fact, in CoS, they are very considerate and helpful to 
Hermione's parents.  IMO, you certainly cannot compare the Weasleys 
behavior to that of the Malfoys-father and son.  Condescension, IMO, 
is a type of snobbery.  I simply have not noticed anything but down-
to-earth, thoughtful, kind-hearted responses to Muggles or Muggle-
borns from the Weasley parents.  If you would, please provide some 
examples of this condescension.  I am eager to discover anything I 
have overlooked in my reading.
