Except all the enemy would have to do is put up a Shield Charm and voila.
Yea but I bet Voldemort wished he used a gun to try to kill harry instead of the killing curse after that back lash lol


He wouldn't have had to go back to the Dursleys, though. He and Ron just had to wait for the Weasleys to come back. And sure, that could have taken some time (no more than a couple of hours from their point of view, surely), but it definitely would have been the smarter thing to do, since missing the first day of term is preferable to being in trouble with the law (or dead).

yeah, but the whole point was that they were these 12 year old boys who didn't think and acted all irresponsibly. they wouldn't have done it in the later books.

I think that is exactly the crux of the argument. They were just two silly young boys. Like Harry says in the book: "We didn't think..." to which McGonagall replies "That is obvious." Or something like that.

Yes, I've wondered that too.

Oh, I agree. I don't think their actions are unrealistic. I was just responding to the comment about Harry having to go back to the Durselys.

What do you think happened to her ? But I suppose the ministry could find her killed or alive
