the, traditionally, least valued child.

I BEG your pardon? What kind of backwards-assed 'tradition' were you raised in?

Old-fashioned, upper-class, English tradition. The heir and the spare, and all that.

Sorry your parents didn't love you, it must be sad.

I am too, and unlike everyone else commenting on it, I mean that genuinely. Not agreeing with someone about how a fictional character named their child is no excuse to sneer at them about their real life problems.

The whole point of the "spare" is how valuable they are as a back-up. If you'd said "fifteenth" it would make sense.

AYRT. Listen, I'm English myself (and I strongly suspect that you aren't) and that is BS. The concept you describe is about securing inheritance, it says nothing at all about the relative value of the second son. Not to mention that the Potterverse is resolutely middle class, with one or two exceptions (Malfoys, I suppose). Please dispense with your stereotype that boarding school=upper class. It doesn't.

/tired of people confidently thinking stuff that is rubbish about British culture.

Went to Cambridge, actually, but carry on getting British slang and phraseology wrong and usefully proving my point.
