Me too. I think we also have to remember that Bae was just a child.

True!
I will also add that Charming holding it for five seconds thought to use it to control Rumple. Zelena was worse when using the dagger and Belle keeps using it on him and it doesn't matter if she has good reasons or not, it is still enslaving someone. Regina was also shaking when she used it. I think, and I found this theory on tumblr that the dagger whispers to people their darkest desires, something they would never acknowledge or act on. The more they use it, the more it urges them on. That is the price of magic, where the wielder of the dagger loses a bit of their soul to darkness when using it's magic.
