Yeah, that was incredibly rude of him, on multiple accounts, but especially throwing away your character sheet. Roleplaying doesn't need to be super serious all the time. There are plenty of examples of fun and foolishness, and apparently fun and foolish characters/creatures who are actually quite wise and powerful under their facade (I mean, shit, Yoda, anyone?) in fantasy. Besides, even in real life, as harsh as it can be, most people find ways to be silly and have fun for their own sanity. I don't see why people in armor and people wielding magic wouldn't engage in the same kind of behavior.
Part of the horror surrounding witches is that their age and apparent frailty belies frightening power. Plus, their cooky craziness makes them scary and unpredictable. I think your initial character choice was pretty inspired given how pedestrian regular mages and sword types are.
Can you find an IRL group to play with? Because I think that would be your best bet, especially if they allow kids to play.
