The thing is, a lot of people have interpreted the prequels as saying that the Jedi were in the wrong, and that they were psychologically harmful to Anakin. But I don’t think George wrote the prequels with that in mind. I think, in his mind, Anakin was clearly in the wrong, and the Jedi were right. Anakin was written to be essentially an arrogant brat who throws a tantrum when he isn’t granted the rank of Master at 22 years old, a moment that was meant to show Anakin being ungrateful rather than the Jedi being mean to him. He repeatedly gets angry over perceived slights by the Jedi, but all those “slights” basically just amount to him not advancing at the breakneck pace he thinks he should be.

What I think happened is that the whole prequel Jedi philosophy simply didn’t gel well with modern audiences, so people came up with interpretations that placed the Jedi as the ones who wronged Anakin rather than Anakin just being in the wrong. It’s perfectly fine to choose to interpret the prequels as being critical of the Jedi. I just don’t believe that was George’s intention when writing them.
