I'd agree with this except for the fact that Buffy was also a traumatized minor and blaming her for not being able to deal with another, differently traumatized minor is sketch.

Buffy had a support group, and she could have, at the very least, just accepted that Faith was there and not made her friends think they had to choose sides.

I agree Buffy was traumatized, as well, but that doesn't excuse her worst actions, and REALLY doesn't excuse the adults. Faith's worst behaviors aren't excused, either, but she had literally no one on her side except for a psychopath.

With the sort-of exception of Giles, Buffy's support group turned on her hard at the beginning of season 3. They changed their minds, but it was pretty obvious to everyone that her support group was conditional. Willow was the leading charge of the "No Faiths" brigade, but she still had a shot with the rest of the gang right up until she threatened to rape and murder Xander.

Yeah, the adults had no excuse. But expecting a bunch of children to be able to deal with Faith's level of fucked up is not okay.

The Scoobies were always pretty mercurial when it came down to it; quick to suspect each other and to think the worst of each other in a lot of situations.

In a tv show where these 'children' do all sorts of stuff no actual kids do, and know just how awful things can be? I think they could have done better.

i'm not saying buffy made zero mistakes but buffy was a child and it was not her responsibility to handle faith, plus she was the only one interested in reaching out instead of punishing her after what happened. i would put the blame on the adults in sunnydale who didn't bother with her until she became a problem and they decided to punish her instead of trying to help her (looking directly at joyce and giles)
