I don't think they make her an automatically bad mother, and for the moment I think Nick should leave things the way they are.

1) Indeed she tried to kill Auntie Marie, now we can say she probably killed loads of Wesen. But the fact is she did try to kill an old woman who possessed no threat to her, cause she was paid to do so. No doubt the knowledge that she was her ancestral enemy, and would probably kill her helps Adalind sleep at night but it doesn't really change that fact.

2) Well to be fair she never planned to kill him, if Nick had given her the key he would be released. At worst she was willing to risk his life. Now some people will argue its really Renard's fault, its true he was the mastermind behind the plan. However Adalind did willing go along with it, cause Renard promised to pay her (and a little emotional manipulation an seduction). So really she was his hitman.

3) Accident that can't be blamed on her.

4) I think the potion was supposed to kill Juliette, its just their efforts giving her the antidote in time stopped it. And it still needed a kiss from Prince charming to wake her from a coma, so I would say this was still intended murder. Now Adalind did have her reasons, Nick had just stolen her power, but she did risk his friends life (really its a complicated matter).

5) Debatable, I mean indeed the guy was a thug and if she had been a regular girl he probably would have robbed (and potentially done worse to her), but as we don't know his intents it could be murder or it could be self defence.

Is Adalind as big a killer as Nick or Renard? No, not on her life. Did she do all those terrible things? Yes she did, and couple more.

Now should Nick forgive her? I'll say yes, I mean Present Adalind isn't the same woman she was back in season one. She's changed, and while she hasn't suffered legally for her crimes, she's certainly been through a lot of punishment.

Karma follows Adalind with a large stick. Really as long as she stays on the straight and narrow, their is nothing to worry about.
