But every once in a while, some parents have a change of heart and realize their child could get a much better education at Hogwarts, and so arrange a transfer as soon as possible.<br/><br/>Just an idea...<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>For what it's worth, I like that idea.
