Joyce was a good mother to Buffy despite the complications of Buffy being a slayer.
Willow: You're the Slayer, and we're, like, the Slayerettes!
I think what made Buffy different from the slayers before her was that she had a close circle of friends supporting her.
Giles: I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the Twelfth Century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophecy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.
Giles was not just her watcher but a male authoritative figure towards Buffy. She depended on him when her mother died. But then he left so that she could learn how to cope on her own as an adult.
