Kemper now:
> The Weasley's know Ron is out risking his life in a war.  So do many parents in RL whose children are various conflicts throughout the world.  As much as parents might want their child to live, those parents and the Weasley's honor their children's choice.  Why wouldn't the Grangers?

It's not the Granger's world, they didn't grow up with terror of the 
first rise of TDL to power.  In the Granger circles--well educated 
professionals--you don't really let go of your kids until after 
university, preferably after graduate school, say around 24. 

It is actually amazing, when you think on it, that they'd let Hg go to 
Hogwarts at all.  When compared to the Granger's schooling, a Hogwarts 
training is more trade school than traditional education.
