I think the Blue Fairy is "good", but one thing that can happen when you are a powerful person on the "good" side is that you start to do things for the "greater good", meaning you do things that aren't exactly exemplary for the sake of meeting a necessary end. For example, she lied to Snow White and company about the number of people the wardrobe could take because if she had not no one would have been able to go to the next world. Or how she told Dreamy to leave Nova because of her greater destiny. Now that we are on the precipice of discovering Neal is also Peter Pan, that would also be a good example, meaning she sent him to Neverland because she new he would encounter the savior centuries later so she had to keep him alive. Baelfire may have been angry that the Blue Fairy lied to him and sent him to a world with magic, but if you step back and look at the big picture it was necessary. That is how you have to look at what she does, do not worry about the individual effects to particular people, think about the entire situation and how she effects the overall story.
