Why did Thomasin give in so easily?
To avoid spoilers of the end of the movie, I reduced the title, originally I intended to ask:
Why did Thomasin give in to Devil so easily
Which is the real question here - at the end of movie, I expected here to try to get revenge. I thought she will try to stab Black Phillip. Of course, killing a goat doesn't kill the Devil and would probably lead to her demise. But it would be expected flow of events.
Instead, she suddenly turned the sides. Why? Was she the Witch all along, just not aware of it herself?
Best Answer
I think that this happened because of the way her parents treated her. And maybe that's what the whole movie is all about. When your own people treat you bad and don't trust you, they make you turn to things you wouldn't initially want to turn to.
So Thomasin's parents treated her awfully and never trusted her or listened to her and that lead her to give in to the devil although she initially didn't want to.

Answer 2
She does not give in, she bargains.
What canst thou give?
She chose the Devil, and the powers he would give her. Riches, both corporeal and ethereal. When she speaks to Black Phillip to sign his ledger, she goes to him; not the other way around. She wants to become a witch at this point.
Previously she was scared, but now; an outcast with no family who is believed to be a witch anyway? what does she have to lose?
