People are so cruel. It's sad how for all their differences (and there are some glaring differences between the two worlds), the wizarding world and its non-wizarding counterpart are, at the end of the day, more similar than we might think. Harry's own experience with bullying at the hands of Dudley and his gang pals for most of primary school is a case in point, and now Luna. Poor poor kids! 
There are just some problems magic can't solve. |
Let's not even go to why Gryffindor is the superior house, Hufflepuffs are the losers, Ravenclaws are the nerds and Slytherins are the evil ones. Though I feel like that is mostly the fandom's interpretation and not necessarily of JKR.
