Renee:
Well, I don't want to read about a young man who is selfish enough to
reproduce, whilst knowing he may be dead by the time the child is
born. Harry grew up without parents. If he willingly takes the risk of
producing a child that may grow up fatherless, he's not a good guy -
not in my book.

But I'm confident that he won't. Harry dumped Ginny because by
remaining her boyfriend he'd put her at risk. And then you would have
him suddenly decide to add to the risk by marrying her and getting her
pregnant - making her *more* vulnerable than she'd be if she merely
was his girlfriend? I prefer to think JKR will show a minimum of
consistency in her story.
