Merida is a brat because:

- She is very, very privileged, and accepts all these privileges gleefully, but does not want to take responsibility or do any of her parts in it. Not just getting married, but working hard at becoming a good Queen someday. She'd rather goof off with the bow and horse that she only has because of the privilege lent to her by the position of being a princess.
- As others have said, she solely blames her mother for what both her and her father are responsible for (not to mention the law, which they're not totally above)
- Destroying her mother's tapestry was completely unnecessary--I was pretty disgusted with how little she cared about destroying it, when it was the end of the world that her mom broke her bow (something she was instantaneously regretful of)
- She did not give two shits about her mom having eaten a pastry from some old witch in the forest and then immediately becoming physical ill. Who on Earth would not think she hadn't been poisoned or something?
- She immediately declares "It's not my fault, it's not my fault!", which might be realistic, but it's incredibly self-centered to think on those terms first considering she has no idea whether it's permanent or not

And the triplets bothered me at times too--they had to be bribed to help rescue their mother from being impaled by their father. That's...pretty freaky.

I wanted to like Merida so much when I watched it, I came away completely disgusted after. Knowing that, I ended up liking her a bit more on the second viewing.
