so, what, James only decided to sacrifice his life to protect his family because he thought he'd get credit for it?

Seriously. I love how James being a bit of a jerk as a kid means he was more evil than Snape. James grew up.

Protecting someone you hate is far more difficult than protecting a family member.

But he didn't do it for Harry, he did it for Lily. He was still doing it for someone he loved, and he might have set Harry on fire if it would have gotten him Lily back.

nayrt, but why does it matter who he did it for? The fact is that he did it. I've seen this point come up in other fandoms, as a roundabout way of disparaging a character because their motives aren't pure enough. It just makes me wonder who is pure enough, and when is doing something good actually good enough.

tl;dr. I think that the ayrt's statement of "Protecting someone you hate is far more difficult than protecting a family member" is actually a valid point.
