As people have said, focus on the capricious nature of Summer and the lack of long term planning or empathy. Make Summer behave much like a toddler granted unlimited power to indulge her whims: she gets what she wants whether or not anyone else wants it.
I keep thinking of the Gentleman with the Thistledown Hair from "Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell": he wants Stephen Black to become King of England, and he works toward this goal, despite the fact that Stephen doesn't want to be King and cannot possibly be crowned King (not being the line of succession and being the wrong ethnicity and all that). And it's clear that if the Gentleman gets distracted, he could go from loving and support Stephen to casually murdering him in the pursuit of some other goal.
That's a bad "growth" faerie for you: wants what it wants right now, will do whatever is necessary to get what it wants, and will change its goals at the drop of a hat.
