OOP pg. 163 "I don't believe it! I don't believe it! Oh, Ron, how
wonderful! A prefect! That's everyone in the family!" What are Fred
and I, next-door neighbors?
paulaboo commented:
What bothers me about this statement and the first thing I thought of
when I read it was: What about Ginny? She's not made prefect yet.
strawberryJAMM replies:
Mrs. Weasley not considering Ginny can easily be explained away by
assuming a missing "so far" on the end of Molly's last
sentence: "That's everyone in the family [so far]!" Or, in other
words, that's all the members of the family who have reached 5th
year at Hogwarts (and were thus, at one time or another, actually
eligible for the role of prefect).
This does not, of course, explain or excuse her obvious oversight
regarding the twins. :-)
