Correct! She's a Slytherin whose family opposed Voldemort and consequently all got killed, leaving her traumatised and really rather screwed up as a result. She's a mother-mentor figure to the younger generation, but by no means a perfect one - she's a deeply flawed character. I certainly don't expect my readers to agree 100% with everything or indeed anything she says. She's hardly a role model.
