After I first noticed the bickering between Hermione and Ron in The 
Prisoner of Azkaban, I realized that this is very typical of 
teenagers.  In addition to emotions running high, that's often a 
stage in life when children become idealistic about important world 
matters and begin working toward their future.  When it became 
apparent exactly how heavy a course load Hermione had taken on in The 
Prisoner of Azkaban, her frayed nerves and short temper made a great 
deal of sense to me.

Best Wishes,
Marilyn

individual.  Hermione considers house elves as enslaved, Ron comments 
that his mother would  like to have one for doing the ironing.  Such 
differing opinions on  slavery were one of the reasons for the US 
civil war.  This is one subject  that either Ron or Hermione will 
need to make a full turn around on if they are  to ever be a couple.
