tbh I think JKR sometimes goes too far into telling us how we should be reacting to her story, though, which I'm not here for. (Also, the whole shebang about Dumbledore's sexuality, which was never actually put INTO the books, grrrrrrr.)

Like, too quick to give into their tempers?

Pretty much. Too argumentative and spiteful (see: Hermione trying to make Ron jealous all through book 6) and emotionally immature and unwilling to appear vulnerable.
