I think people kind of forget that Henry is like 13 at the oldest. He's just a kid. And Pan has been slowly (as slowly as they could in 8 episodes) decieving him to make him feel like his family doesn't care about him (i.e. that weird flute thing he does). And Henry kind of already felt betrayed by his family, Regina for always lying to him, Emma for lying to him about his father, and maybe even Neal for not being around, even though it wasn't his fault. I mean, duh it was really stupid, but I think the writers point was that he lost faith in his family.
