He did some of the most heinous actions in the series, was willing to go as far sacrificing his most loyal henchman, and that, based on utter lack of remorse, puts him possibly ahead of even Jafar and just below Midas. I just have a hard time faulting him for those actions. (I've known way too many people with kids just like that.) He was a child in an adult's body who traded his child for a child's body. It's a little unfair, but the most socially forward perspective on evil admits that children just can't be expected if they don't reach a certain developmental stage, and some people actually never go formal operational. If the body matters, then he became a child and that's that. If the body doesn't matter, he was never an adult at any time.

No.. Pan was not a child mentally, he was probably the smartest person on the show, manipulating most of the main characters and playing mind games. And most children are not Sociopaths, you are excusing him wayy too much here.
