Harry Potter's father, James, was killed when Harry was one year old, Harry wasn't old enough to be standing up to him by then. Harry was raised by his aunt Petunia and uncle Vernon who both strongly disliked him, especially his uncle.

As Harry grew older, he stood up to his aunt and uncle several times; such as in the third book when Vernon locked Harry's school books away and forbid him from doing his homework. Harry broke into the cupboard and did his homework in secret.

In the fourth book, the whole family was put on a diet so Harry sent his owl with a plea for help to his friends - who sent him cakes and snacks which Harry kept for himself.
