Melody in Schenectady, New York says her 7-year-old daughter, Emma, is constantly writing little stories and whatnot, which inevitably end up all over the house. As Melody was picking up some of Emma’s latest scraps, she found this note addressed to her 4-year-old sister.

The added smile to Hello Kitty is a nice touch. Someday this kid will be adding smileys to passive-aggressive emails like nobody’s business.

Written in highlighter… no doubt yet another glimpse into the future of P/A notes for this young one…

They’re so cute when they still use only one color.

I’m curious as to whether Addison can even read this note; and if she can, then what her response to Emma will be.

“Addison?” Really? This Anglo-Saxon last-names-used-for-first-names trend has GOT to stop.

Am I the only one who can’t read what this says?

It took me about five re-reads to comprehend that “sud beniserto m<3e" in fact meant "should be nicer to me." Ha ha! Little kids… =)
But, I think the important thing to note is the correct spelling of the following 2 words:
Love
You
Food for thought…

Quite Contrary
The real question is do they share a room? Why the need for a note?

I thought that said that Emma is the 4 year old. The writing would make much more sense.

yay Schenectady NY! I think it breeds passive aggressive sibling rivalries. Or just aggressive, if having a chunk of my arm out by my younger sister counts as sibling rivalry.

This would have mad a lot more sense if the 4-year-old had written the note. A 7-year-old with such atrocious writing/spelling/language skills? Yikes. Sad, sad state of affairs in our schools.

I think Mom needs to keep the note.

I think the note is adorable. She is seven. She likes to write, cool. She is “using her words” to write a note to her sister, instead of hitting or yelling, which is swell.
The fact that her sister most likely cannot even read the note is what makes it so good.
The brains in small children are still under construction – they don’t quite think the way they will a few years later.
I agree with Poppie – Mom needs to keep the note.

She named her kid “Addison”? Or is she actually called “Madison” and the 7-year-old just mis-spelled it?
Madison is still a weird name.

Kid needs some serious tutoring on spelling and handwriting. Note is unreadable.
