>>The problem is your assumption that Snape should be a responsible 
adult. It is quite possible for a person to have a brilliant mind 
and a big talent (such as Potions) and a loyalty-to-the-death to an 
honorable cause, and still be immature, childish, and so on.<<

Ever see "Amadeus?" I love that movie (favorite movie, by the way) and Mozart was
just like that (childish, immature). I hear Albert Einstein had poor social skills
as well.
