Tallulah’s letter to Sunny (which was bad btw someone really needs to talk to Tallulah about it, the letter was just mean and unnecessary) gets really bad when you compare it to Sunny’s letter (and phil+chay) to Tallulah. Sunny’s was kind, but it was especially young it was filled with grammar mistakes, diction was tiny (small word choice, and words were short), emoticons, constant misspellings, that letter was very obviously written by someone 8 at the most. While Tallulah’s letter was long, proper grammar, huge diction, it comes off as someone at the youngest of 13 wrote it, but even adding in wiggle room for Tallulah just being a more mature writer she’s still very obviously much older than Sunny.
Kids are mean, they just are, and they’ll recognize like Tallulah did that their being mean, but if no one stops them they’ll just keep going. Tallulah is a kid, who is genuinely bullying this much younger kid, and she understands that fully as she states, but she is also blaming Sunny for this behavior. No one is telling her otherwise, to her she’s not mean normally but she’s mean to Sunny so obviously Sunny’s existence is triggering her trauma. Tallulah isn’t mean, so to Tallulah being mean is on part the fault of the other person (She’s a kid, kids work like that it). Someone just needs to have a proper talk with her, someone that she trusts and cares about, it doesn’t have to be Phil, it just needs to be someone.
Think about this from Sunny’s perspective, they purposefully withheld themselves when talking to Tallulah for a chance to be loved and then were told that they still were too much, and would be too much for a long time. Sunny got told very directly that it was their fault, that they were upsetting Tallulah by existing, and they can not be loved right now. Any attempts to talk to Tallulah are testing her patience, and she should just go away and never come back again. Sunny’s so much younger then Tallulah, so much younger then all the eggs but Em & Pepito, she’s just a little kid.
As a note I really adore Tallulah (my little darling) and I just want an adult to have a conversation with her, kids are like this but that doesn’t mean it should be left unchecked. If anyone says anything seriously mean to Sunny or Tallulah on this post it will be a block, I know twitters comfortable sending death threats to toddlers but you shouldn’t be.
