As a child your parents and family have the biggest affect on your character throughout the rest of your life. They are the most influential people you will ever encounter in my opinion. However, their influence can veer your development of character in the wrong direction. Harry, in Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling grows up with his step parents and of course Dudley. Harry is neglected and is treated horribly. This turns Harry in to what he is throughout the books.
Growing up, Harry was always told he couldn't do something. He was always told to stay in the cupboard. He was always told that a pair of old and worn socks was more than enough for his birthday present. Could it be that this sparked the leader and fiery temper in the Harry Potter that we see in later years? Maybe, after so many years of being told no that this was how Harry "wiped off" his emotions and feelings. To prove to his step parents and his awful cousin that he was a leader and that he would never be told that he was wrong. Is the reason for his leadership skills and choleric self all because of the influential power of his family? What do you think?
