I have different reasons for and against three of the Pevensie children as to who should not have been allowed back into Narnia. Really the only person that I cannot come up with anything against her acceptance into Narnia is Lucy. She always believed in Narnia and did all that she could for Narnia.
The first person I thought of that should have been banned from Narnia is Edmund. Right from the beginning he was a traitor. If you were to look at the religious contexts of the Narnia books and were to compare Edmund to Judas then Edmund should have been punished like Judas (and become a vampire if you are familiar with that story!) That is the defense against Edmund, but if you were to look at all the stories you would find that Edmund changed a great deal. After The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe Edmund was always doing everything he could for Narnia. He was always siding with Lucy even if no one else would and always tried to help Narnia.
Peter was always doing everything that he could for Narnia. The only problem with him was his pride and arrogance. He was the “high king” and never let anyone forget it.
No one can believe that Susan was no longer a friend of Narnia, but I have to say I saw something coming (only not as extreme). In Prince Caspian she refused to believe that Aslan was there and could not believe Lucy. She kept saying that Lucy was being a bad girl.
