Ron's (non-existent) table manners, for a start; I haven't seen the movies but I would guess that they didn't portray them on screen because it would have made the audiences feel sick. Her Howlers to her children - embarassing them in front of the whole school. Her despicable treatment of Sirius Black IN HIS OWN HOUSE. Her attitude to Fleur. The way her children, as soon as they reached an age where they could leave home, buggered off to live as far away from her as possible (except for Ron the Walking Stomach). The way Arthur retreated to his shed, away from her, at every possible opportunity (although I feel that moron deserved everything he got).
And, frankly, her claiming Harry as 'one of my children to me' on the basis of such a short acquaintance was positively creepy.
In my personal head-canon (which I may turn into a fic soon, provisionally to be titled 'Young, Gifted, and Black') Bellatrix went insane because of being bullied at school by Molly Prewett.
