There is no perfect idol in "Harry Potter": Harry has always admired and missed his father as an arrogant little demon in school; Dumbledore may even kill his sister by mistake when he was young, and for a time Addicted to black magic. The only one who received constant praise was Harry’s mother, Lily. Almost everyone who had contact with her liked her, but she was a bit cruel to Snape. The latter’s deep love for her did not get. Return. She finally left her best friend, with a hint of betrayal, and married the James who she once scolded for "ignorance and arrogance", and the latter once took pleasure in torturing Snape. Rowling has been trying to tell her readers about the weakness of idols. The reason why idols become idols is because they have made mistakes but know how to introspect, and eventually grow into a great person. No one is born great. No. Even Harry Potter, who was born with a special mission, has shortcomings in almost every episode, and there are irritating places. By the seventh episode, he almost repeated Dumbledore’s mistakes and wanted to have "Death Hallows", but in the end he chose the right path and truly grew into an idol.

There is no one who is underestimated in "Harry Potter": Neville, the boy who was always ridiculed, stupid, and always making mistakes at first, became an important hero. Not only did he contribute key points to Gryffindor’s victory in the academy in the first episode, but at the end of the final battle in the seventh episode, it was not Ron or Hermione who cut off the snake's head, but him. When Harry Potter gave him the task of killing that important Horcrux, he completed it decisively at the most appropriate time. Even Draco Malfoy, who appeared as a villain from the beginning, played a key special role in an unconscious manner at the last moment. I believe anyone who has read it will understand. This is to educate young people not to despise themselves or others. No matter what kind of person they are, they are extremely important in their limited world.

"Harry Potter" never hesitated to mention death: death is something that cannot be changed. No one is resurrected in this long magical story, Rowling never tries to give a false impression. Even the dead who are awakened by the resurrection stone are unhappy and have to return to the grave in the end. Harry Potter was able to defeat Voldemort because he truly accepted the "death" and went to death generously.

There are many, many details in "Harry Potter": the pursuit of racial equality; mutual understanding and support among friends; the most important meaning of education lies in what kind of person to teach rather than what kind of skills...

good Well, so adults should also watch "Harry Potter" more. In addition to its good-looking story, there is another reason that many adults have not received such education in their youth, so after adulthood I still follow blindly and have no idea of ​​death... It's time to make up a lesson!
