[Harry Potter] If Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy had offered to raise Harry alongside their own son how might events have turned out differently?

I could see a potentially plausible scenario where Lucius might have wanted to do this in order to both demonstrate his goodwill and more importantly have influence over a child who had somehow defeated the most powerful dark wizard of his time. Keep in mind at this point Voldemort was thought to be destroyed and the remaining Death Eaters would be looking to consolidate any possible advantage they had remaining. And while I don't think for one minute that Dumbledore would have willingly gone along with such an arrangement, Lucius had significant influence with the Ministry and could well have gotten his way though you can be certain Dumbledore would have made sure there were strict conditions in place at the very least.

Still, regardless of how the scenario comes about how might things have gone differently if this had happened?

Dumbledore would not have allowed that to happen since he knew that Lucius was a death eater. There would be no going along for the most powerful wizard in the world, willing or not. He would have stolen Harry and deposited him somewhere long before allowing the Malfoys to take Harry.

Also there is a strong possibility that Voldemort would have killed Lucius for having Harry, dude was not the most stable of people.
