1. Accept personal responsibility: Many know Hermione as the smart, A-type bookworm, but she truly proves herself to be ethically caring as well throughout the films. Specifically in the first film, Hermione’s “bossy” attitude seems to be a predominantly known and well-recognized characteristic, so it came as a shock when she showed a shred of selflessness, in the beginning. In The Sorcerer’s Stone, Hermione had enough of the constant mockery and ridicule entreated upon her by Ron and Harry, so she fled to the girls’ bathroom where she wept. Ron and Harry had heard there was a troll near the same bathroom that Hermione was in, so they immediately jumped to her defense and were on their way. As they came to her rescue, they found that the troll was in the girls’ bathroom, and Hermione was horrified. They then proceeded to defeat the troll, but not without consequence. Although they had brought down the beast, they were reprimanded for breaking countless house rules. Even though Ron and Harry were the ones who were the prime suspects, Hermione showed personal responsibility by taking the fall, as they would not have been in danger (or been in the situation at all, for that matter) if they didn’t feel like they had to save Hermione who had resided in the girls’ bathroom.
