Huh. I always forget about that. Because now it seems so impossible.
Did they ever talk about it? Going to school with Muggleborns, I mean.
I reckon, then, it might be like something one of my friends says about people who do things that they know are wrong and bad. She says once they done whatever it is, they've got a choice--either they go on with it, knowing that they'd did a terrible thing, or they talk themselves into thinking the person they did it to deserved it.
It could be like that with your dad and Muggleborns. He had to make decisions like that, and it would have made his job loads easier if he decided to really believe Muggles and Muggleborns aren't people or to think they're evil and deserve to be hurt.
I don't know about your mum. Only, if your dad thought that way, it'd be easier to be with him if she did, too.
