Re: Fandom secrets you're too lazy to make

[(Anonymous)]

To my mind he did plenty of things wrong, but yeah, he wasn't a villain, and he was usually doing what he thought was the best thing for the situation. He just wasn't always right about what that might be.

What, specifically, was he wrong/unjustified about, though?

Re: Fandom secrets you're too lazy to make

A lot of what he does as a teacher, headmaster and carer for children I would consider less than ideal. Leaving Harry with the Dursleys was badly mishandled. Blood protection only justifies so much, and there's a difference between allowing a child to be raised humble and allowing a child to be raised abused. How he manages and fails to manage the house rivalries in Hogwarts also has a fair few knock-on consequences. The Shrieking Shack incident was incredibly badly handled, and that wound up basically deciding the first war and a significant portion of the second. The House Cup in Harry's first year also did nothing to close the gap between houses, which was very badly timed given Voldemort's resurgence. The fact that he seems to hire teachers relative to the war effort (hi Snape) rather than relative to their ability to actually teach children is also a problem. He also consistently fails to tell people important things until after the fact, with occasionally fatal consequences (hi Snape again). I mean, some of these aren't the worst way to handle things, but they also really aren't the best.

He was in the wrong a fair few times, imo. The Shrieking Shack, leaving Harry with the Dursleys, the first year House Cup, his last gambit with Snape having pretty much no failsafes whatsoever. He's a pretty decent general, especially for a shadow war, and he's trying to get the best outcome possible, but he's honestly NOT the best teacher or someone I would trust with children. Or adults, a lot of the time. For someone who's so widely respected he seems to have surprisingly little ability to properly judge social situations and consequences.
