I don’t know if there was a deeper meaning there. Some people just have an irrational fear when it comes to certain things.
When he was younger my friend’s little brother was terrified of cats. Cats, as we all know, can be playful but are pretty much just really good at sleeping. So, I never understood that one either.
it’s just a human fear.
It’s a natural phobia. The books don’t say what triggered his.
When he was 3 his brother turned his teddy bear into a huge spider. And he’s been afraid of them ever since. Don’t you guys read the books?
something about his brother’s when he was younger wasn’t it, or his cousin, ima havta go look it up now
It was probably because they chased him out of The Burrow or something stupid like that. Whatever the story it was, I don’t think it had a deep meaning. I couldn’t find it in the book, either. I skimmed through it. But I don’t think it was important; at the most, it was just to make Ron funnier.
Like ChicoHinso said it was his brother (either Fred or George can’t recall) that turned his teddy bear into a giant spider and ever since then he’s had a fear. Not unlike phobias in real life which, are believed to be triggered by some sort of random “traumatic” experience. It doesn’t necessarily have to be life threatening just frightening. My friend who is arachnophobia says that she saw a horror movie when she was 4, and that all she could remember was a part where there were people struggling in a giant spider web while the spider slowly made it’s way to them. Ever since that she can’t stand the sight of a spider on it’s web. So Ron’s fears are a lot like a phobia in real life but with a magic twist, like everything else Harry-Potter.
