Harry Potter, huh? I think you are right, the poor boy is not so bright. I think, though, that he has a childlike view of the events in the books. My own 12 year old boy has not a logical bone in his body. He does not see things from any perspective but his own. He can barely conceive that other people might have valid thoughts and actions that he might not think of himself, let alone approve of. I think, strangley enough, that JKR has pretty much captured the true personality of a boy that age. My main complaint with JKR and HP is that her characters tend to not have enough canon written depth for me. She doesn't show the layers and intricacies of her characters because she uses HArry's POV for so much of the series. Only a chapter here and there from other people's view.
ACK! I am babbling off about HP in your journal! So sorry...
