And yes, there's one here about how house-elves and muggleborns of course remove so many of the complications of modern parenthood. I must say, I don't trust that much, even having seen Diane's household in action. And more to the point, is that kind of hands-off approach at all good for the child?
(I admit I've been thinking about the practical issues a bit more the last few months, for what must be obvious reasons. Raz and I are both well aware of the pressure, even while neither of us wants to rush anything.)
Do you - of course, if this crosses one of your oaths, don't worry about replying - but do you get many, boys or girls, asking you questions? Or are we sending them out into the world entirely unprepared, relying only on the Ministry (or their families and friends) for information?
