Many people don't seem to touch on the point that molly was trying to make  
in oopt was that she felt sirius was treating harry like he was james. Molly  
thought and i agree that harry needed adults in his life not an adult that  
treated him like a brother. I will say yeah she went the wrong way about it,  
yelling at sirius and reminding him of being in azkaban the way she did.
 
And yes she didn't have to take harry to her bosom, and treat him like her  
son. But it was something she chose to do. Remember she hates to speak ill of  
the dursely's in front of him.
And i know that if my son came home with a friend like harry who had no mom  
or had lost both parents and lived in a place that didn't care for him as they 
 should in regards to loving him. That boy would be calling me mom and when 
he  had kids I would be their grandma, even though I wasn't related by blood. 
 
Molly isn't perfect. No one is.
 
And I have just a question, when were fred and george ever direct in muggle  
baiting. i know some of the stuff they sold were used by draco and the  
deatheaters. But I can't recall where they deliberatley hurt someone and it was  
really bad and montague doesn't count. and neither does using first years to try  
their goods out on either.
