Detailed explanation-1: -It has been previously theorised that the Dursleys hated Harry because he was one of Voldemort’s Horcruxes – thus the magic around him warped their minds.
Detailed explanation-2: -Rowling also explained that Vernon hated Harry for the same reason Severus Snape pretended to: He looked too much like his dad. She also wanted to show Petunia’s softer side by giving her a more meaningful farewell to Harry, but had to stick to her unpleasant nature.
Detailed explanation-3: -JK Rowling has revealed the back story behind the Dursleys’ violent dislike of their nephew Harry Potter in a new piece of writing for her website, Pottermore – as well as the reasoning behind her decision to let Petunia Dursley walk away from Harry without a word of kindness in the final novel.
Detailed explanation-4: -Vernon and Petunia were afraid of Harry’s connection to magic, so they hid the fact that he was a wizard. They also greatly neglected Harry, forcing him to stay in the cupboard under the stairs. They treated their son, Dudley, far better by spoiling him and giving in to the boy’s constant demands.
