MyLeaky Login   Raised in a Muggle Neighborhood  By Nadia M   As
Harry Potter found out more about Severus Snape in Harry Potter
and the Order of the Phoenix and Harry Potter and the Deathly
Hallows, some interesting connections between Harry’s family and
Snape’s family emerged. Harry and Snape are both treated badly
by their families. They both dislike their families and are
happy to get away from them at Hogwarts. There are, however,
significant differences in their family situations. Their
families interact differently and Harry and Snape have different
perspectives on their families. Harry sees these similarities
and differences when he sees Snape’s childhood through memories
from Dumbledore’s Pensieve. Snape’s childhood led Harry to
further understand Snape as a person.   Harry grows up without a
caring family. The Dursleys treat Harry more like an animal
nuisance than a boy. Uncle Vernon complains loudly about him and
Aunt Petunia punishes him with difficult chores.1 Dudley bullies
