Parenting Harry (was: Re: I don't like him much)

However, the argument I was making was that Snape is the only one
who *consistentely* disciplines Harry and ties to curb his rule
breaking tendencies and that even Lupin, who cares deeply for Harry 
and does attempt to exercise some control over him, ultimately 
fails in this role. How does Lupin's giving the Map back to Harry 
out of nostalgia contradict that?

I agree with Eloise - great post, by the way.

I think I've figured out you Snape lovers. You can't stand the fact 
that Harry is the hero of the Harry Potter series and that a hero has 
to be proactive, that the hero has to do things not just stand in a 
corner while a nasty,big nose SOB kicks him around.

Well after 5 novels the fact that Harry is the hero of the Harry 
Potter books is not going to change and if all of you just can't seem 
to deal with that then maybe you should simply stop reading the books.
