OBI-WAN: You were the chosen one! It was said that you would destroy the Sith, not join them. You were to bring balance to the Force, not leave it in darkness.
ANAKIN SKYWALKER: I hate you!
OBI-WAN: You were my brother, Anakin. I loved you.

I think the whole "never see Hogwarts or their families" goes like this:
Those who aren't Muggle-born MUST attend Hogwarts. Of the group of 10/11 yr olds getting ready to start Hogwarts, only non muggle-borns can board the train. Muggle-borns either a)never get their letters so will never be aware of Hogwarts OR b) will show up at King's Cross and get abducted by the Ministry. Thus, they will never see Hogwarts, and their families think they'll be at school but they'll never see each other again.
I think that's what's happening. It was crappy writing regardless.
I'm not even going to get into the Remus thing. (though I've adopted your "Remus is an alcoholic" philosophy of the last book)

Hmm, yes, that makes sense - from what comes later it seems like the DEs/Ministry are actively weeding out muggle-borns rather than just ignoring them. But yeah, that's not too clear from the text, so meh.
Alcoholic!Remus makes more sense the more I think about it. It's weird.
And hello, by the way! *Waves*
