Harry Potter: Who cares about belated motherly love?

As soon as the two of them left, I immediately took action.

Mr. Batty also said that he would be in charge of the Black family's affairs from now on and asked me to help my brothers.

Mr. Batty liked Ron very much.

He had heard about our situation from Ron before, so he said my dad wasn't that bad.

After hearing about this incident, he began to think that my father was not completely unconcerned about his family...

Indeed it is.

Mr. Batty sometimes asked Winky for information about his situation.

Although Winky lived with Mr. Batty, the formal contract was signed with our father.

Actually, I was living with Mr. Bhatti on my father's orders.

My father is not a bad man. Compared with my father, Mr. Bati is much more reliable.

He always cared about my work situation, whether I could adapt to the job, and whether my brothers had a good relationship with his son. He would also write in the letter that he hoped I could take more care of his son in the future and asked me to pass on the message to my brothers.

Mr. Bhatti would also regularly send some of Ron's favorite super-high-end teas.

However, he is just not very good with children. Mr. Barty cares a lot about his son's performance in work and life. Compared with my father, he is definitely a better father. Although he sacrificed his family because of his work, in the wizarding world, many people tend to rely on those who are capable.

If he pushed his son into darkness because of inappropriate methods, then in some ways he is indeed not as good as my father... However, forcing a son into darkness is obviously a major problem, which I can understand.

But... if the son wants to rebel, he has to do something. And our family didn't pay much attention to their rebellion. In my opinion, Mr. Crouch seems to be a more loving father.

My father said at work that he didn't want to worry his sons, but he never asked a lawyer about our situation, which I couldn't forgive. Although it was impossible to contact the Weasleys directly, it was possible to contact them through a law firm, and it could be done at a small cost.

In short, as Ron said, my father was indifferent to people. He was indifferent to the situation of his wife and daughter at home, and he didn't care about us after he left.

Ah, how am I going to explain this to my brothers… The next three brothers will probably just say “Oh, that’s what it is” and that’s it, but Patsy will… just be disgusted. But he will definitely be hurt because he is the most sensitive and tender of us brothers.

Maybe Charlie just said it in passing?

How will the father cope with this? Well, this is his own fault. He can't even control his wife and daughter, and it ends up like this.

He is not a bad person, but he is insensitive, careless, and simple. He always judges things on the surface and easily believes them. He never pays attention to unfavorable things.

Now that I look back at my home and find so many luxurious clothes, it is understandable that this kind of thing can be said to be indifferent to others. If he had realized this earlier, perhaps he could have corrected it. Such behavior is often for a purpose. As long as I had warned her in advance, my mother would have done it without hesitation. In that case, she should have been accustomed to a simple life by now, right?

We were experiencing the same thing. Ginny's room was full of things, but our empty room did not evoke any emotion. Even when Percy became like that, he noticed it but did nothing. He chose to turn a blind eye to his brothers who were scolded by their mother for unreasonable reasons and even had no food to eat. The children were only wearing tattered clothes in the cold and cooked their own food in the yard, but he had no feelings about it?

The reason for this is probably because they simply don't want to think about it.

When the brothers were picked up by the Weasleys, the clothes they brought with them made my uncle say they looked like street kids, which was absolutely true. I just couldn't believe he could just ignore it. How could he let it get to that point?

It was undoubtedly my father's fault that my mother became that way. He might have such a tendency, but he was still a simple and obedient person deep down. So if you tell him the truth, he would probably do it. It was because my father said nothing and let things develop that this deteriorated.

They weren't such bad people, I know that very well.

Each of them made a choice that was not good for themselves and the other. They chose the easier way to escape. Both of their ex-fiancés were very stable people. I met my father's ex-fiancé, she later married another Weasley family, and she was really an amazing person. She was also beautiful, smart, and caring. I couldn't understand why she chose my mother.

My mother's ex-fiancé was also a pure-blood noble. I met him when I was working at the Black family. He was a very dignified man, from a wealthy family, and very capable. My grandfather worked very hard for my mother's future. And I wondered why she chose my father. If she had married that man and lived under his protection, she would have been very happy.

However, my brothers and I were born in this way, so we have no right to complain...

Perhaps both had given their fiancés a lot of advice, but ultimately avoided it and chose to marry someone who was similar to themselves. If they had learned from it, perhaps the outcome would have been different, but they didn't change.

No, that might not be right. If they had stayed the same, maybe they wouldn't have broken up. If they hadn't had children, they could have been immersed in a happy world that belonged to the two of them. Having so many children was a good thing, but they gave birth to more children than they could handle, which might have been the beginning of tragedy.

I probably interfered too much in child-rearing. Charlie and I raised my brothers as replacements for our parents, which led to their constant birth of children. But it couldn't be helped...if I hadn't replaced them, my brothers would probably have died a long time ago.

The cracks had started to show when Patsy was born. The twins had already shown signs of breaking. But Ron was the final blow. The next three brothers were too ordinary for our parents to handle. If Charlie and I had stopped, it would have been naive to think that we kept having children just because we wanted girls. If we had, maybe they would still be in that peaceful, happy family.

Moreover, when the situation became unmanageable, they did not make an effort to change it, but turned to their respective families for help and easily obtained money. The money originally prepared for their sons was only used to satisfy their own pleasure. As a result, the economy became difficult, and they continued to ask for funds from their families, falling into a completely vicious circle. They regarded their sons as a tool to make money. Since they had been kicked out of the family, they should not rely on their family and work harder. However, because they were used to such a life, they only regarded their sons as a source of money, and fell into the trap of the nobles who used children as their purpose.

I have a lot more responsibility towards my parents than they do. That's why I can't forgive them. In fact, my brothers have completely cut off contact with my parents and don't even care about them. I don't have any resentment in my heart. Maybe I resent my parents much more than my brothers. Those children are good children, aren't they? I can't forgive them for treating them like that because my wishes are not met. In fact, I don't intend to forgive at all.

Honestly, I don't think they deserve any sympathy.

However, I don't want my brothers to worry about their parents' affairs anymore, so I want to solve this problem before the summer vacation. Just like my uncle said, I will take Ginny with me and send my mother away with her.

But I think my mother and Ginny will not reflect on anything and will continue to enjoy a luxurious life until they die. They may never understand what they did wrong. There is no way, my father made them become that kind of people, and this has become their happiness.

In our future life, we no longer need those two people, that's all.
