Yeah, in the long run she has more negatives, but I feel like she got too much that it doesn't balance in the end.

She could have at the very least wanted to drink human blood. There wasn't much reason behind her having that, Renesmee didn't smell like food, something could have been worked around Charlie, like with the newborns in Eclipse, keep Jacob, Seth, and Leah's scent on/around Charlie, and it would have kept Bella back. There was no point to her skipping that newborn phase, other than Meyer's need to make all of her characters a special snowflake.

We get it she's amazing.

She got a hybrid child that solved all of the problems of Jacob and the pack, her shield, and that was pretty much all we needed.

Everything else just felt like it was overkill.

It's not even that amazing that she can hold off from killing people.

Carlisle and Rosalie did the same thing, why is being treated like it's new information for the Cullen's to seem someone holding off from human blood?

I think it's their reactions that got me the most.

Everyone being in awe of her control when two other people had more control than she did, and poor Jasper feels even more like a faliure when he shouldn't as both Carlisle and Rosalie, again had better newborn control, so why is he so upset over Bella's?
