I don't credit Rumplestiltskin with great emotional awareness in relationships, but I think he's right when he tells Emma that Henry will come around and eventually stop blaming Emma for the lie-about-his-Dad situation.
He's a kid, and kids, especially kids who have had a black-and-white worldview like he does, are going to continue to have that until they realize there are many shades of gray in the world. Which is the same thing as the journey to maturity.
Emma does deserve to be pissed, although Neal apologized in his lame way. He still owes her some slack on this, though. He needs to tell Henry to cut his mother a break.
And everyone's in line for the "Emma needs to slug Pinocchio in his wooden nose," party right?
