“ | You're from Burma, aren't you? Was it nice there? Do you miss your family? (the snake at the zoo gestures to a sign that says "Bred in Captivity.") I see. That's me as well. I never knew my parents, either. | „ |
~ Harry Potter to a friendly snake. |
“ | We'll get you home now. Your parents must be worried sick. I don't have parents. |
„ |
~ Ezra telling Hera that his parents might be dead or missing. |
A recurring theme in fiction concerning heroes is the loss of their parents (usually both), normally at an early age, at least before their 18th birthday.
Some orphans get separated from their families and find them.
Some never even had parents and are clones born in a laboratory (such as Clone Troopers), And sometimes, when the death of both of their parents is bad enough, they are sometimes brought in by kind or abusive guardians or raised by animals.
Luckily, orphans gets adopted by a new couple as their parents.
