Narcissa

Lori:" We have not seen enough of her to really make a judgment in
this manner, but what we have seen tends to show me that she is a more
or less jealous of Harry. She is agreeing to raise Draco to be a
little Death Eater, but I don't think she wants him to be."

Why not? We've seen very little of Narcissa Malfoy, but what little we
have, particularly the way she passed on Kreacher's information
immediately and the mention of "the Malfoys" acting together, shows
her as being a participant in Lucius's evildoing.

There isn't one word in the canon that makes me think either Mummy or
Daddy has any problem with Draco being the evil little SOB that he is.
 There's no sign they are not 100% behind Draco's desire to murder
Buckbeak, throw out Hagrid and Dumbledore, everything he does, apparently.

I don't know if Draco is going to be a Death Eater or not, but we know
where his sympathies lie.  Let's see:

Draco is a bully (demonstrated over and over and over)
Draco is a bigot (Mudbloods)
Draco is a coward (flees at the first sign of trouble)
Draco taunts his enemies with the death of a good person (disgusting)

I will concede this: there's no sign that Draco has developed a
coherent DE philosophy, he just follows Daddy and thinks being evil is
much cooler. Also, we haven't seen him do serious harm to someone yet.
He's got all the prejudices and attitudes to form a Death Eater, but
we'll see.  I think the chances of ever seeing a Redeemed!Draco are
poor indeed.
