Very interesting. I love seeing how Petunia goes from not knowing what to do with Harry, because of what's happened to him as much as anything, to still not knowing what to do with Harry and accepting Vernon's orders on what to do even though she knows that it doesn't work. And the origins of Petunia spoling Dudley, since she feels guilty about his childhood and wants to 'make it up to him'. Her frustration, exhaustion, guilt and her feeling just stuck in this situation she can't change, so just goes along with it, and Vernon, and everything else... Fantastic word painting. :oD
