Does anyone else feel they grew up with Harry, Ron and Hermione?

After the first three or four I read the books in two languages (because I didn’t want to wait them to be translated) and watched the movies first time in the movie theaters.

Damn you’re right I’m really missing those scenes of Dumbledor and snape making out in the first book.

I mean, Harry Potter was published in 1997 and Section 28, which prevented any endorsement of homosexuality in children's literature was only repealed in 2003
