Wow, this is bad. I'm two chapters in and... it's just bad. In particular the Ron bashing. There's the common problem of how Harry and Hermione are constantly thinking about what an idiot he is, with no explanation on why they actually hang out with him if he's such a troll.
The first chapter starts off with Vernon punishing Harry (including punching him), because he cleaned the house. Really. Not only do they beat Harry, but they'll do so even if he's doing what they ask. Jeanie shows up and the fic pretty much states that she's omnipotent. When asked if there's anything she can't do, she says "Yes; but that's only because you won't let me," and starts thinking about killing Vernon like the sociopath she is

Personally, I don't mind if a person dislikes a character that I like. It's a matter of opinion and I let it be. It's the bashing of characters because you don't like who they are shipped with as far as Canon goes that ticks me off. I'm not going to talk about the mentioned Dumbledore bashing. This fanfic sucks.
There's a real hypocrisy, too. They villanize Ron and put Harry on a pedestal, but they act so much like. They're best friends for a reason. Ron's insensitive? So's Harry; didn't they read about his breakup with Cho? Ron's rude? Harry got punished for very similar behavior. Ron's stupid? Harry's run into so many obvious traps it's not even funny. It works the same way with Harry's courage, loyalty, and selflessness-Ron does the exact same thing. I actually think that the only trio ship that makes any sense is Ron/Harry, and they're not even gay!
