Miles:
Molly was the brightest witch of her age? Molly was as ambitious as Hermione
is?
I really don't see it. Molly may want to push Arthur to a career he does not
really want to have, but where do you see any parallels to Hermione?
The only one is that Molly is the Weasley who decides things, is dominant in
the family.

Miles:
To fall in love is sufficient for a happy time together, but not for a life
together ;). JKR seems to follow the romantic pattern "they fell in love at
school, married, and lived happily ever after." Well, that's not very
realistic, right? Yes, it is just a novel, and fiction, so no need for
realism. But the start of this thread was about "shipping", and I simply
disagree with those who state that Ron and Hermione are a perfect match.
They really, really aren't.
