Given all the frustration that teenagers gave him in season one, it's actually a little surprising that Derek would choose to aggravate himself with more of them once he was an Alpha if other options existed. Again, it's especially weird that he would choose ones that were not in the best places emotionally.

Or cops, cops would've been a good strategic choice. Having an in with law enforcement is never a bad thing. Which brings this around to your comment about why don't the harassed werewolves just go to the cops. A theory to that is the werewolves are afraid/know the Hunters have insiders, which, again, makes it all the more sensible to get your own inside men.

The whole Gerard, Alexander, and Victoria thing makes me wonder about the werewolves definition of young (and strong though I still can't see Gerard being strong by any definition) and how they age. Cora said something like she was 17 the way Stiles would measure years. At first I thought that was just to screw with Stiles, and us, but then I thought about Gerard, maybe his human years aren't all that old to werewolves, even if I still can't reconcile him with 'young' by any standard. My god, how old must werewolves get if the man in his mid sixties could be considered young?
