We always hate on Dumbledore for leaving Harry with the Dursleys because he knew what horrible people they were and still abandoned him, but if he was raised knowing his importance and fame, what kind of a person would he have grown up to be? Would he have ended up like Dudley, spoiled and a coward? I think Dumbledore saw that Harry needed to learn what it was like to be mistreated and abused, so that when the final stand against Voldemort came, Harry would understand the struggles of mankind against evil on a personal level and choose the right side. So that's my random rant.
