      It would be cool if they did let some squibs into the school. Even though they can't do magic, they would be excellent in subjects such as Muggle Studies, Astronomy and even help out in subjects that do require magic. They could learn every spell by heart and be ready to tell their peers what to do in case of an emergency. They could collect and add all of the potion ingredients into the potion and just let the witch or wizard do the wandwork. There are people in the muggle world trying to do divination, so it would be very interesting to see squibs try to do divination. History of Magic would be a great subject that they may excel at as well. While they would not be able to defend themselves in case of a battle, squibs could be amazing at doing physical fighting and could teach Hogwarts students physical defences like karate.

      We can't know if that's the point or not. All he said was that they can't read. And given the number of people I knew who could barely read in high school, and the sheer vastness of reading Hogwarts' students would be required to do in and out of the classroom would make it, if anything, the inverse of what you said. And how much does reading ability really increase in class, anyway? It's not like they have classes specifically _for_ it. Reading ability increases with use. The more you read, the more quickly you'll be able to and the more words you'll pick up as you go. If you want to pass your OWLs and NEWTs, you are going to be doing a _lot_ of reading. Especially if you want to get a good grade, up to and including an Outstanding.

      Gonna have to disagree on that one. The "wizarding world" isnt located somewhere thats completely inaccessible to humans, AND the ministry uses magic to basically keep them from noticing magical happenings and locations (which seems kinda morally grey, but whatever). So how would one explain flying cars/dragons/death eaters/dark lords and all the other magical stuff if they were used to destroy or infringe upon the rest of the world? How would accountability hold up? The bridge incident is a good example.

      True, but what if that wheelchair bound person wanted to learn about the math and skills behind running to help those who can in the future? They would obviously want to go to the school for running to get that education. The same applies to a squib. Just because they can't use it, doesn't mean they can't learn it, and it's even more wrong because they already know magic and wizards exist anyways. They have the same right to the knowledge as a muggle born wizard in their 11th year.

      Plus, you don't need magic to brew potions, study history, know astronomy, learn arithmancy, or understand muggles.

    MatPat, the ministry has to have a law that allows public wizard schools to reject squibs. If they had to have squibs there, then what would they learn? They can't do magic, and all they do at Hogwarts is magic. It's like having a kid sit in the corner at a school where he had no use for anything he was learning, couldn't do anything he was learning, and overall didn't need to be there. That would waste the kids time learning stuff he had no use for. The only thing the squib could really use is History of Magic, which proves to be a bore anyway.

Hagrid is deeply troubled by his squib status and always wanted to be a wizard but elitist fucks like dumbledore probably kept him under their foot. What if Dumbledore knew that the spider wasn't the Slytherin monster and let Hagrid take the blame anyway just to fuck with him? What if harry's squib neighbor is under dumbledore's boot too? (she is, she was told to live there by him to keep an eye on Harry.) How many squibs are leading opressed lives and why do we not hear their stories more?

      Woah there. First off, Hagrid's story is specifically told to us in the second story, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, where Hagrid is said NOT to be a squib (as he shows his magical abilities in literally every movie and story) but was expelled for a crime he did not commit. They snapped his wand (what they do every time someone is expelled, it is quite common place) and the headmaster, not Dumbledore, wanted him to leave immediately. Dumbledore actually wanted to keep him there because of his knack with all sorts of different creatures, and it even says in the story that Tom Riddle was annoyed and knew he couldn't open the chamber anymore because Dumbledore suspected him. Dumbledore wasn't even headmaster, only the Transfiguration teacher. He couldn't stop what the headmaster was going to do, when there was so much evidence pointing to Hagrid. Also, it never mentions in the story that Harry's neighbor was a squib, just that she was placed there to keep an eye on Harry. Furthermore, sure, it mentions that squibs aren't allowed, but never says that they lead oppressed lives. By the way, the french people from the fourth book never mention anything about being rich, while being good-looking, sure, but hey, it's fucking MAGIC. As a side note, Dumbledore is beloved by all magical folk and squibs. He even gave a job to Filch, who was a terrible person and of course a squib, but he is always present in the books WITH A JOB. Dumbledore is definitely NOT an "elitist fuck". Therefore, I suggest you fucking READ THE BOOKS AND WATCH THE MOVIES before you come back and show your sorry ass your dumb fucking complaint again and realize all the mistakes you have made.

    At Hogwarts, the students go there at age 10-11, which means that they should know the basic things in life, like how to read, know addition, subtraction, division, etc. The should also know the key points in history as well. And beside, when will you ever need to use all that advanced math stuff you learn in middle school and high school? Another thing is that this school just CAN'T physically train muggles. They teach magical things that Squibs just can't learn. Not trying to hate here, I love this channel.

    • @jamesm783

      Actually @InfintyMagic you start the September after you turn 11 (so if your birthday is in September, October, November, or December you don't start until the following year - like Sirius Black, Tom Riddle, and Hermione Granger). You must have had your 11th birthday to be admitted.
      @James M - JKR has said herself that a certain level of magic is required for those subjects. Potions requires some magic in the brewing, Herbology in the growing, etc. This applies to subjects like Arithmancy and Ancient Runes too. Really, the only subjects they could learn would be History of Magic and Muggle Studies - one of which is not strictly useful and the other they could learn better in non-magical society.

    • @WingDingzz

      But, the thing is, it isn't. It's in book 2 I believe, Harry is brought into Filch' office. On the desk, there is a letter describing a magic learning course for squibs. If it can be used by squibs, why couldn't it be used by muggles? After all, there must be at least a recessive gene for magic, other wise there would be no muggleborns/halfbloods. A squib is born of magical parents, while having no magic to say of their own. That means that the magical gene is still there, and were a squib to have a child, that pases on the gene, with the same 50/50 chance tto be able to go to Hogwarts, the same on the squib parent had.

      @aarowtheblacksmith789 7 ปีที่แล้ว +44

      +Hallie Holme The Kwikspell course wasn't meant for squibs, though. In the letter it shows two reviews from a witch and wizard praising the course, and neither of them were squibs, they were simply poor with magic. The witch says that she can't remember incantations, and that her potions suck. The wizard says that his charms are feeble. And obviously Filch has no luck with the courses, so the Kwikspell thing clearly only works for sub-par wizards/witches. In other words, muggles and squibs can't be taught magic, for they don't have any magical power.
      This idea is also touched upon in the seventh book when the Death Eater regime rounds up muggle-borns, claiming that they are muggles who have stolen magical abilities from actual wizards and witches, which they know is impossible. "If you could steal magic, there wouldn't be any muggles or squibs, would there?"
      On the subject of squibs and muggle-borns, squibs are rare, while muggle-borns are much more common. Dumbledore's notes on The Tale's of Beedle the Bard tell us that there is a theory that muggle-borns exist because they have a magical ancestor. That being said, if this theory is true (which I think it is, because it makes no sense for a muggle to give birth to a wizard for no reason), then for a muggle-born to be created, they would have to have an ancestor who was a squib. That squib ancestor would have to have become a member of muggle society, had children with a muggle, and those children were non-magical, but still inherited the magic gene. That gene would then be passed down continuously until it resurfaced generations later, creating a "muggle-born". Since muggle-borns are common, while squibs are not, it must also be common for squibs to give birth to non-magical children, which would explain the abundance of muggle-borns. If a squib were just as likely to produce magical children as a witch or wizard, there would basically be no muggle-borns.

    Matt those wizards can read. They start school at Hogwarts when their 11. What 11 year old doesn't know how to read?

      An 11 year old with a shitty home life up? What if the child's education had been severely neglected? Do they have special ed classes at Hogwarts? Hopefully they do and Harry is just oblivious.

    But squibs aren't disabled, they just don't have magic

      Aryavrat Baliyan how old are you? You’re basically saying that a paralyzed man is not disabled it’s just he can’t move

      yea technically wizards are disabled since a majority of humans DON'T have magic(wizards are still humans they are just humans with magic )

      and that would make hogwarts a disabled persons school which is legal

      Implying, maybe, but he certainly didn't actually say that, unless, of course, I'm deaf or missed it the few times I played it back to double check some things. This is of course ignoring the fact that Ministry laws are most certainly much different from US and British law~

      The Ministry of Magic is technically like a "black programme" within the UK government. Sure, the Minister For Magic may seem like the Prime Minister, but he's more like a member of the cabinet for the muggle Prime Minister. Thus, they still have to follow the rule of law as set forth by Parliament.

      Delta X WELL, no acctually. If you sent a squib to hogwarts, everyone would pick on him, AND he would fail every single class since he need's magic! a squib can't use magic tho! are you getting my point yet?
