I've snipped out everyone's comments--sorry.

Many people seem to think Percy was under the Imperius curse 
performed by Lucius all through OOP.  The question I have is WHY.  
What value would there be to perform this curse?

Lucius and Fudge are very close.  If LM wanted info about MOM 
dealings, he could probably just ask.  I don't see that as a 
compelling reason.

If LM wanted info on the Order, why would he make Percy sever ties 
with his family.  That just doesn't make any sense.

I don't see Percy acting out of character.  I believe he's just a bit 
more comfortable to be himself now that he's out of his parents 
nest.  I see a lot of kids that remain strongly under their parents 
influence after coming of age.  Then, after a bit of time has passed, 
realize that they are truly in control of themselves and feel free to 
bolt away from their parents.  I don't find it strange at all that 
Percy "comes into his own" in OOP.

Just my thoughts
