On the other hand, a forgiving nature (which she has) is likely to score her points with a certain someone, so there are upsides to this... 😉
It didn't help Neville that his family was forever tearing him down. Molly wasn't great (what are we, the neighbours?), but there was a sense of familial belonging and pride (deserved or not). It also didn't help that he spent the majority of his school years with a wand that wasn't suited to him. While that may have made him stronger in the end, probably did in fact, the fact is he made a poorer showing than he should have through most of the series, and that cost him unnecessarily as well.
