The Ethics of Wand Usage in Self-Harm Scenarios
The chapter delves into the intricacies of whether a wizard could use their wand for self-harm or suicide, exploring the concept of fail-safes in wands and the importance of intent. It draws comparisons between wands and handguns, discusses wand sentience, instances of wands preventing harm to their owners, and the implications of intentional versus accidental actions. The dialogue also touches on loyalty and effectiveness in using one's own wand versus someone else's, and transitions into discussions on relationships between wizards and wands, fears like Boggarts and Dementors, and control.
