You have actual examples of students inspired by the HP books to questionable behavior? I'm interested to read about that.
There were two teachers at Azkatraz in 2009 who said they had students who were rowdy and belligerent, and justified their behavior through HP characters. The teachers had a lot to say on the subject, but some listeners shouted down their experiences. The teachers made their comments as part of the People vs. JKR event, which was high-spirited all around.
I actually work with educators. I should probably ask around my workplace.
