I agree with you except I might be a little more pro-Derek than you. I was so niffed when Allison blamed Derek for Kate's Death when she saw Peter kill her. Or how everone seems to interpret his mission to kil Lydia as him wanting her dead as opposed to stopping he Kanimas killing. He could have easlily just killed Jackson instead of testing both of them. His life may have bean easier. I also never understood why Scott was opposed to forming a pack when he new Gerard was out to kill him, even suggesting that Derek team up with them after watching him kill the omega. I also have a theory that a lot of Derek's problems stem from Scott's actions. Derek bit Jackson after Scott told im about werewolves, a person he did not trust, At that point Jackson became a liability he new to much and either needed to die from the bite or make him share so palpability. I never understood why Scott didn't tell him about Gerard's plan either, okay so he's not your alpha but does anyone think for one second that Derek wouldn't help Scott save his mom (especially after losing his own family to hunters.) AS for his training methods, I think once you become a werewolf the whole teenager argument goes out the window. His whole pack new about hunter before being turned and would the hunters or aplha pack show them mercy, no. He was preoaring them for whtat that would be facing, If he was easy in them they would be unprepared for what they would be facing. I think Derek's actions in S2 will make more sense in S3 as we meet the alphas. I do suspect that Scott was not as well recieved in S1 as Jeff would have liked and maybe drug Derek down a little further than he may have initially planned (S2 was planned out with S1). to make Scott look better (just a theory). I also think it is important to point out other characters have all broken down far worse when placed in similllar situation. Allison and Peter both became hell bent on revenge and Allison only lost her Mother not her entire family. Derek is not perfect but I think he isnt as bad as sometimes portrayed. As for DR. Deaton does he really take his promise to Derek's mother seriously? Allshe did was criticize him and sort of help him.
