 now griffin782002:

I too believe the idea that Dudley or Petunia might develop magic powers. I believe the attack in the first chapter of OotP is important. I actually think that Dudley could see the Dementors, well at he saw the effects and since Muggle can't see them, I wonder if they can see the effects of their presence. J.K.R. created them to 'demonstrate' the feelings of someone that suffers from depression. I how how it feels but you feel 'cold' and 'numb' inside you, not outside. I wonder if it has any importance.
