* When [=McGonagall=] asks Harry if he ever heard about what happened to his parents, Harry very quickly makes it clear that he views his adoptive parents as his ''real'' parents, and [[InsistentTerminology refuses to refer to Lily and James as anything but his "genetic parents"]]. Once he learns the whole story of how they died, and [[HeroicSacrifice how they died protecting him]], he's clearly deeply moved, and tells [=McGonagall=] that he's okay with her calling Lily and James his parents from now on. "I guess there's no reason why I can't have two mothers and two fathers."

* The outcome of Harry's final battle with Voldemort ends up being quite hearthwarming. Faced with a choice between torturing his old mentor to the point of insanity and erasing his memories, Harry chooses the latter, wiping off all the Voldemort's memories except for the ganuinely good ones. It reinforces the message that every person, no matter how wicked, deserves to live and be happy all else being equal.
