I won't pretend to be a major fan of the series, even as a kid in 90s and 2000s, I was sort of annoyed with a lot of the narrative and characters. Funny thing though, as I got older, got into writing and became a daycare worker... I really started to appreciate very specific aspects of the story. The Tragedy of Harry Potter is the biggest one.

Harry is a deeply abused kid, he's never known love and sadly never does. Yes he gets people in his life, but everyone of them had really uncomfortable and unhealthy expectations of him. Dumbles sees him as a human sacrifice, Molly coddles and ignore his needs based on how she wants him to be, Sirius sees him a Second shot of James, Snape as a promise to be kept for Lily and Against James, Ron is willing to fight for him but holds no issue in using Harry for the perks of attention...

And the few that could really be considered bordering on loving him will always put everything above him.…
