My reply: you know it makes me wonder about that too, in the first 
book she said her parents were thrilled when Lily got her letter, 
but then she calls her a freak, and well, even Mr Filch doesn't 
think that witches are freaks. And then Voldemort said that Harry's 
Mother was a muggle in GoF. So if Petunia is from a magic family 
then it's a family of squibs who didn't think they would ever have a 
witch in the family or 1/2 blood and Petunia hated whoever it was 
that was magical in the family, (maybe dad walked out on them). Lori
