If Draco Malfoy had been raised 由 a different family, do 你 think that he would have been a better kind of person?
I'm just putting my own opinion out there... I think so. When Harry first met him when he got his robes fixed first year, the book 说 he was rather polite, and his hesitation to do anything REALLY bad through out the series says a lot.
Yes, I do. Because all the negative traits he has are pretty much copied from his father, as 你 can clearly see. We saw there was good in him in several instances like that he WAS reluctant to be a Death Eater and kill Albus Dumbledore. Oh, don't get me wrong, Draco was a butthole and I didn't like him at all. But only for the reason of the family he grew up in.
Joanne 说 that Scorpius was an "improvement on his father", this probably meaning that Draco had raised his son differently than Lucius raised him. (This is only my theory, bit it is likely because the 秒 War had changed Draco and affected him 更多 than the others; he was not fit to be a Death Eater.) If Lucius had raised Draco like Draco raised Scorpius, Draco probably would have ended up like his son... Was that as confusing to 你 as it was to me? XD I 说 their names a lot.
