    1. it would be too easy - you might as well ask, why not use the time turner to stop You-know-who from being born, there would be no harry potter books then

    2. messing with time had far reaching effects that you cant predict, and is dangerous . Dumbledore said as much when giving the time turmer to Hermione and telling her to use it only for classes.

    3. What is meant to happen will happen, no matter how you mess with time. Remember how Harry found out that the person he thought was his dad with the Patronus that saved him was actually himself. So he was meant to travel back in time, anyways, even before he knew that he would.

    Phew!

    Because the author Rowlings is sick and tired of Harry and all his mates. She's going to jerk the rug out from under all of us (fans) and never do anything else that amounts to anything even remotely significant again...!!!

    because in the fifth jk rowling had less imagination and needed to sell many many books so she added some drama...
