Was Harry designed as the Anti-LV weapon ?

Alla:


I believe I read similar idea of Harry's conception as anti-LV 
weapon. (Was it Kneasy? I am not sure) I disagree unsurprisingly on 
several grounds.

Alla:


Well, yes, it is a good idea not to have kids when you are fighting 
the war on the "practical grounds". 

Two young couples who are in love may not consider the practical 
consequences of their decision to have children at war time.

Alla:

If they did not hear the Prophecy yet prior to conceiving Harry and 
Neville, why did they decide to make children weaons, why not train 
any of the adults to do so?

Alla:

What are you saying? That the Prohecy was really given earlier than 2 
months prior to children's birth? I am confused.

Alla:

Right, but how would they know that the child will be "perfect 
weapon"? Which conditions were needed to be fulfilled for that?

Alla:

Absolutely, it is plausible. It is just one of those things, which I 
hope will not come to be true on "metathinking" grounds.

It is one thing for child to choose to be a hero, it is another to 
learn that you were created as robot who really did not have any 
choice in the matter.
