> 2. Were Harry and Ron extremely foolish and selfish not to reveal the hidden passageway to Hogwart's staff, especially to Dumbledore?

> Carol responds:
Probably, but it's typical for them not to reveal what they know to adults, in this case because the revelation of the map would get the Twins in trouble. The one who ought to have revealed his knowledge was Lupin. Instead, he seems to think that watching the map himself (when
> he's alone and in human form) will be sufficient.


June:
Funny I have read this book so many times but had forgotten this. Carol is right, Lupin should have told Dumbledore about the map and even taken it to him when he had gotten possession of it.
