On some level I understand reacting that way because just because something is realistic doesn't mean it's fun for the audience to read about or watch. I do mostly agree with you though, and I've read people so mercilessly bash both Buffy and Harry in such OTT ways that it makes me genuinely wonder if they just flat out lack critical thinking skills and/or empathy.

Ya, I'm with you, especially re: Buffy. No one is saying that she's a perfect paragon of virtue (especially not back in the day *leans on cane* when this whole FLAWLESS! hero/ine thing wasn't going on). But man, that's some bad shit happening to what's essentially a kid still -- Harry may have been even younger than Buffy, but at least Harry didn't have a child sister to suddenly take care of after losing your mother you've relied on all your life!

For the record, while I'm not super-interested in Harry as a protagonist, I like him and want to give him, too, a blanket and some hot chocolate.
