>>>It would be so much easier for the wizard to do a memory-wiping 
spell, just like Hermione did to her parents, or a mind-altering 
spell, like Ron did to the Muggle driving instructor. W/a spell, the 
wizards could take the child to Hogwarts to learn magic, teach the 
child how to use magic properly & protect the wizarding world from 
being exposed by leaving a wild wizard wandering in the Muggle 
world. The wizards haven't hestitated to use magic on Muggles 
before, for much less compelling reasons. <<<
