I thought Merida was a brat for her stubbornness and ungratefulness in other situations outside of the marriage deal. I can totally understand her being against the forced marriage because, hey, it's a FORCED marriage. But outside of that all she wanted to do was run around in the wood and shoot arrows and avoid all her obligations altogether. If she had at least tried to put her best foot forward in fulfilling those obligations and failed only to have her mother yell at her for not being good enough, I would have liked her better but she simply seemed to want to avoid them altogether and was completely unyielding in even trying. Not a very admirable quality.

If she hated the thought of ruling that bad she should have tried to step down and allow one of her brothers to take over.

She didn't see the point of those actions, though. It's one thing to say you have to learn these things, but another reason entirely to explain why and Elinor didn't even bother with the why. Merida realized the why later, when she had to act as her mother usually did.

What anon above said. Also it was kind of indicated that days when she got to do what she enjoyed were rare. It's not like she was out running around in the woods with her bow all day on a daily, or even weekly basis.
