Tonks here:
First Harry is a child. Normally he would never have been told all
of the things that he knows about because he is a child and has no
business in adult affairs. It is only because he is the prophesy
child that he is told anything.
Alla:
I think it is pretty big "because". :o)
Tonks:
Second Snape is a spy and this is
not a game. This is serious and dangerous work that Snape is doing.
Why should he let down his guard for some kid who will first blab to
his friends and Snape knows who else!!! Snape is not stupid you
know. Even WE know that he will tell Ron and Hermione!! And even if
he doesn't he will start acting differently toward Snape. There will
not be the same amount of hatred in his eyes and someone will
notice.
Alla:
I am not asking you to agree with me that Snape may not be spying
anymore, but I am asking you to pretend for a second that you
agree. :o)
If we knew for sure that Snape did not go back to Voldemort, would
you agree that Snape has NOT justification whatsoever for treating
Harry like he does?
Personally, I think that even if he is spying,it is no
justification, but since his "spying duties" are often argued as an
excuse, I wonder what do you think.
Thanks,
Alla
