I don't have my book with me either - can someone look up that scene at
Christmas? I vaguely remember Remus saying that he *wasn't* trusted,
not entirely, because he'd spent so much time living amongst humans,
whereas most of the werewolves lived apart from society. I think this
is what made his position difficult and incredibly stressful.
(I also think Lupin wasn't entirely himself, seeing as he's trying to
deal with Sirius's death and Tonks being in love with him. Perhaps he
just doesn't want to offend Harry with his statements, or encourage him
toward blindly hating someone further than he already is, and therefore
claims to be in the middle so Harry can't use him as an example.)
