Yeah, but a lot of people glorify it while including the flaws, as well. Families tease each other, it's one of the main ways to show affection. When a sibling gets a girlfriend or boyfriend, they get teased for it. That's all there is to it. If Fred had gotten a girlfriend, he would've gotten hell from George. If Ron had gotten a girlfriend before the death of Fred, the twins would've mocked him, too. Ginny got special treatment, in a way, because she was the only girl, so instead the boys got a bit over-protective, instead of teasing.

Being a nerd gets a negitive attitude in pretty much any family, not just the Weasleys. Outside of the family, too, with everyone else. It'd be weird if they weren't. XD

Also, every family has their black sheep. Percy didn't quite fit in with the rest of them, but that's what made them realistic. He searched to find something that would accept him better (IE, the Government), but he realized the error of his ways and went back, where he was readily accepted. You seem to be forgetting that part.

Personally, being a lonely only child, I'd kill for a family like the Weasleys, simply so that my house wouldn't be as unbelivably boring. I'm used to getting teased and ignored by my friends and cousins. ...and my dad mocks me all the time, come to think of it. XD (It's only fair, I mock him, too. Haha.) All that crap is what makes a family a family.

Speaking as someone from a medium-sized family (four kids), teasing is not a sign of affection; it's a sign of repressed aggression. It's a way to show dominance. People who claim it's a sign of affection are either slightly sadistic and really do want to hurt the ones they love, or (far more often) are fooling themselves.

Well then I suppose everyone in my extended family hates each other! Not to mention my best friend, who is the oldest of five, must really hate her brothers, and vice versa, despite the love they have show for each other when it's important.

Maybe you come from a different kind of family, but what I've seen? That's not the way of it at all.

And what about your friends? You're saying you've NEVER teased your friends for something like who they have a crush on or for crying at a movie? Maybe I'm just a bitch who finds no one but other bitches to hang out with, but I really think that's weird. oO;

I think seriously that the thing about the Weasleys (or whoever) is that different people come from different families and have different temperments and are going to react accordingly. I think the Weasleys fall well within the limits of healthy family. But I would never want to be one of them. I think the Twins are mean to Percy (and it reads to me like Percy feels that way too), but I know that other people don't. The problems they have all seem realistic though--there are no really perfect families in the Potterverse. They all show people hurting each other or dominating each other in some way imo.
