Regina intervened by letting Emma and Henry stay together and have a life without magic or Storybrooke. Had she left things as they were when undoing Pan's curse, Emma would have been forced to return to the EF as well (due to being born there) while Henry would be completely left alone since he was born in the Land Without Magic and is not a native of the EF.
