Not to mention that her dislike of Sirius causes a major breach of
security when they take the kids to meet the Hogwarts Express to go
to school.  Remember how Snape was able to tell Sirius that Lucius
Malfoy recognized him at the train station?  How did Lucius know
Sirius was a dog animagus?

Answer: when Sirius jumped up to lick Harry's face, Molly pushed him
down, saying "Act more like a dog, Sirius!"

Right, Molly: large dogs NEVER jump on people they like and lick
their faces.  Only goldfish do that.  Right.

Molly wanted to be on the scene at 12GP because she had some kind of
idea of exerting control and protecting people but she's really not
capable of handling the new reality the Order faces.  Her belief that
ignorance is some kind of protection is really quite scary.
