DuffyPoo:

After all, it only took Tom Riddle having a Muggle
father who deserted 
his witch mother for him to hate, not only TR Sr, but
all 
Muggles/Muggle-borns as well. 


Alina now:

I can very well believe that he would be near-obsessed
with his mother's lineage, not only to discover a past
he's been 
missing for eleven years, but to further diminish the
father he's learned to hate.


bamf here:

Forgive me, but I didn't think Tom's hatred for all
Muggles came just from his father abandoning Tom's
mother (and Tom).  I thought a lot of it stemmed more
from the Muggle Orphanage that he was forced to stay
live at.  After all, his whole reason to expose Hagrid
as the person who set a monster on muggles was so that
Tom could stay at Hogwarts over the summer.  

My other thought, and this goes along with the
geneology thread, was that Tom's mother died just
after giving birth and naming him.  His father wasn't
around.  I'm assuming Tom went straight to an
orphanage.  When did he track down his father? And
how? I doubt the little town had an orphanage.

Thought?

bamf, who really wishes this migrane would go away...
