I think that House Elves like to work, because they were made to help people so it comes natural for them. If one is freed, he/she might get bored and start doing random jobs for people, and it could be dangerous for them because some people don't like to be helped. Take Dobby for example. After he was freed from the Malfoys he started to work in the Kitchens at Hogwarts, what if he never took that job. I can't imagine |
