SOMETIMES. To SOME people, especially those who would hurt children. Otherwise, she is meant to be feared for her Chaotic and unpredictable nature. Just like Kali, she is not seen as a benevolent deity, but that does NOT mean she is purely evil. Both Kali and Hecate are elemental in their nature, meaning that they do not act towards or against the betterment of mankind, rather towards something totally different.
