"Amiable Dorsai:
And of course, by the possibility of the worst consequence of all: 
Petunia deciding she's had enough and throwing Harry out, at which
point, Harry, in his younger years, at least, is dead.

It's a tragic little irony: The shield of Lily's blood, so strong
against a powerful dark Wizard, is as delicate as a soap bubble to one
Muggle woman.

Amiable Dorsai"

Exactly.  As miserable as Harry may be living with the Dursleys, he is LIVING
with them; which is better than the alternative.
