Nick certainly never displayed any such reluctance. He wanted his grimm back and was certainly proud of it.
Marie called it a misfortune. If Kelly was proud of it, the series never made that apparent.
As for Trubel, a teenager with a troubled past, I don't find it odd that she would grasp at being a grimm to give her life some meaning. I do criticize Nick and Juliette, however. Both of them had the opportunity to offer Trubel so much more and they in essence, copped out on her.
I think older Grimms such as Marie and Rolek definitely gave off an aura that screamed out they fully grasped the weight of what they were and what needed to be done. Marie and Rolek both sought out Nick before they died and gave him the most valuable Grimm items they had while trying to share their wisdom with him in the little time they had left. Rolek valued doing this over spending his last moments with his son.
