I'm glad I'm not one of these parents because deciding whether or not
to send your kids back to school would be an extremely difficult task.

On one hand Hogwarts is a fortress guarded by some of the most
respected and skilled wizard and witches in Britain, but on the other
hand, Harry and Dumbledore are there, and they are Voldemort primary
adversaries making it a primary target.

Of course, that decision hinges on people actually believing that
Voldemort truly is back, and also believing that Dumbledore hasn't
gone completely batty. 

Personally, I think it is too soon for most of the parent to wonder
whether it is safe to send their kids to Hogwarts. The two months
between the end of term and the beginning of the next school year
isn't enough time for people to know what to believe. 

Possible, if things get rough a few students may be pulled out during
the year, but it's next year(6) that will be the real test of trust
for Hogwarts and Dumbledore.

Just a thought.
