RE: Life Lessons from a Geek: A Primer

in #family7 years ago

When my kids ask me questions, I give very thorough explanations.

Me too. I've gotten so I can actually hear their eyes rolling when I do it.

BTW, my wife and I were so disappointed in the way that Neville Longbottom and Molly Weasley were portrayed in the final film. The book showed them as more quietly heroic as opposed to the lucky doofuses they came across as on screen.

This was a great first chapter.

Sort:  

Oh man. Molly Weasley is one of my top 10 literary characters ever. My kids bought me a Molly Weasley wand for my birthday. Don't know what I'll do with it... but happy they knew.

Maybe that's the reason behind the way the movies portrayed her?

She chose to be a wife & mother over pursuing a promising professional career.

We can't condone that kind of behavior. ;-)

I sent that to my wife.

I think good ways to discover or even bookmark older posts is something Steemit needs to address. There's a wealth of good information here that just gets swept away.
