Alla:
I absolutely think that at some point Harry will make a choice to
sacrifice himself in the book 7, where we diverge is that I think
that at another point of plotline he will be saved somehow either
from making the final sacrifice OR during such sacrifice. :)
Oh, and the way I look at Lily sacrifice and DD sacrifice is that
they made it not just for the good of WW, but for Harry to live
eventually. As DD said ( I think it will help you to survive - his
lessons, etc - paraphrasing here).
That is why I am so very fond of "stopper of death" playing its role
in book 7.
Alla,
who also so wants long and happy "life" for Harry and does disagree
with your son that Harry is only useful as a weapon :)
Sorry.
