If your sister is embarrassed then she can stay away. My boys all have favorite items and one of them is 14 … she’s hitting other milestones? Leave that bun bun alone.

I’m 26 and still have my stuffy from when I was a kid let her keep it. I grew out of it but still it makes me happy when I’m sad
I’m 18 and need to sleep with a stuffed animal of some kind, right now its a sloth stuffie that my boyfriend got for me on a whim…its a security thing…makes me feel safe and secure…do not take away Bun Bun!!! Your sister needs to mind her own ducklings.
It’s absolutely fine. Some people have so many issues with just allowing kids to be kids nowadays. Like you said, she does just fine going to school on her own and plays with her friends there, etc. I would def not be letting her stay at the sister’s though until she gets over herself and stops with the comments and rudeness

My 16 yr old got a bunny from my mother at about 3yrs old “Bunny” still sits in her room if she’s had a hard day, or just needs a hug “Bunny” is there for her. Tell your sister to mind her own (parent her own kids, not yours)
Maybe your sister is jelly

I still have my doll from my first Christmas. I’m almost 30. I’d be lying if I said that when I come across her, I don’t give her a squeeze for reminiscing. Don’t let someone else be unnecessarily cruel to your child bc they hate themselves.
I am a 25 yr old grown ass adult and I still have my childhood favorite stuffed animal. And new ones that I also keep on my bed. They are all comfort for me, do not take that baby girls Bun Bun away, it will devastate her! Why take something away thats a comfort and security for your baby. Your sister can mind her own business and if she’s embarrassed for being around her 6 yr old niece for having her best friend with her than she can kick rocks until she gets over. She will eventually grow out of needing it all the time but please don’t ever take it away from her.

Tell your sister to shove it 
it’s perfectly normal most of me and my sisters had stuffed animals into our early teens their attachment will change and it will just become sentimental 
Your sister needs to be cut out and major boundaries set. She’s out of line and with her level of disrespect I wouldn’t be letting my kid over. your LG is perfectly fine.

it’s not sisters place to be like that and you need to look her straight in the face and tell her back tf off bun bun and let your LG be little.
I’m 20 turning 21 and i still own my stuffed animal I got as a baby tell her to mind her own business
Shes only 6. Let her keep bun bun. My 8 yr old son still has his moner (green monster plush) and my 5 yr old still has his hootie and white camo blankie. Let her be a kid and tell your sister that if its that embarrassing to her that she dosent have to come around any more aimple as that
My daughter had a serious obsession with a Elsa doll from 18 months up until about 6… She loved her seriously idolised her…I used to have to wedge her to sit up so it could have dinner with her, sit it in the bathroom Whilst she bathed lol shes 8 now and still has her but she just sits on top of the toy box now unplayed with … I gave Elsa to her baby brother the other day to hold to see what he made of her, he’s 7 months and she said … He’s not having her mum 
she doesn’t play with her no more but Elsa is still there and still very much hers …I jokingly said to her dad I’m taking her to her wedding with us… my point is, she’ll grow out of it don’t take it off her xx
There is nothing wrong with it. My daughter is 12 and has a blanket that she’s Had since her first Christmas. That she still uses. Its a security thing.
My son I’m 4 and has a stuffed pig and mouse thay he takes everywhere I’d never take it because of someone else’s opinion!
My daughter just turned 8 and she still packs her monkey everywhere but school, they have tea parties and everything. She ain’t hurting anybody and she loves George, he makes her happy, so screw what other people say.

Lol I’m 42 and have my last set of baby blankets my Uncle Bill bought me and a lamb I got from the spaghetti warehouse when I was 2. I put them in my memory box when I got older and I felt weird carrying them around. I think shes still little and still needs it. There’s nothing inappropriate about letting a child wag around a stuffed animal for comfort. Where does your sister buy her audacities from? lol she sound mean

My sister, had a dog her name Belle, Snoopy’s sister. I was Belles aunt, my mom her grandma. My sister had a voice for her and she was apart of the family. She went everywhere, my mom was ok letting my sister, express herself. She was probably around 11 that Belle retired. It’s ok let them have their friends. It’s creative, if you don’t have an issue then don’t make it one.

You’re not wrong at all. My son has had a little stuffed bear his entire life. He named him “hunny” when he was almost 2. He’s now 11 and Hunny still has a place in his bed at night. He has obviously grown a little away from it but I totally get it. My husband and I had teddy bears we were obsessed with when we were little… they have their own place on a shelf in our closet. Those two were there for us when we were little and shit was rough. I’m 31 and if anyone ever messed with my ‘pappel’ I was would be furious. Let them be little for as long as you can. They grow up too fast and in the world we live in today, our kids need some comfort!
wait … is this a live bunny or a stuffie?? im so confused
Definitely not too old for that… Jesus, why do people want kids to grow up so fast!!

I knew someone who has this pillow with a baby shirt inside @5yrs old or younger and now @ late 30’s, they’re still together and can’t sleep without the pillow, the spouse learned how to live with the pillow and takes care of it as well, made another kind for their eldest and soon for their youngest. 
No harm done.

My youngest is 3 and he is incredibly attached to his shark blanket. He doesn’t go to nursery with him but it’s rare at home that the blanket is ever out of sight. Considering what it means to him and how much he relies on it when he’s sad I would never tell him he was too old for something that comforts him and causes no harm.

My daughter is 9 and still takes her monkey “george” with her anywhere I’ll let her. Up until last year, she took him to school and everything, the teachers even had a special place for him to be during the day. Just since covid, did I make rules as to where she could bring him… she’s so dependent on him, I didnt want him bringing any germs home on him. She still sleeps with him, and like I said, takes him where allowed (grandparents, aunts and uncles, car rides) and I wouldn’t want it any other way. Let those babies be little as long as they want! No point in rushing them to “grow up” and let go of things that bring them comfort. Just let them be little.
Your little girl is not too old for her bunbun. And tell your sister to mind her own business.

My son is 7 next week and has George pig and takes him most places and sleeps with him x
I had my baby blanket until I was 21 and I still slept with it…only reason why I don’t have it now is because it got lost. I was so hurt losing my blankie.
My daughter is 10 and doesn’t go to bed without her bunbun. If your daughter needs that security, embrace it and remind her that if it makes her happy and feel safe then she can carry bunbun wherever she needs. As far as your sister, I’d have to take the “keeping it real” approach. Remind her that it’s not her child, she isn’t that child and your child has more confidence and security than your sister does. I think we tend forget that children are their own person and she isn’t in a position to take that security and innocence away from your daughter.
My sister is 28 years old & she still has what used to be a blanket from when she was a baby. I would love to see anyone tell her she’s too old for it. Nah… Its her comfort. You’re never too old for comfort.
My brother is 16 VERY popular in school he still carries around his “blankie” that he’s had since he was born he puts it in the freezer to keep it cool and none of his friends or any one makes fun of him who cares it’s a comfort item …
She is most definitely not too old! I still have my childhood stuffed animal. My parents tried to switch it but I didn’t go for it. Let her keep it and grow out of it in her own time.
I have one I sleep with and im very protective about and my husband thinks its funny but cute because if I don’t have my bear I’ll be up all night, but if I do I’m out.like a light its crazy I’m about to be 26
My oldest is 19, she wasn’t feeling well not long ago and pulled out her “Lambie” her stuffed lamb from when she was little, my middle child just turned 13 and sleeps with her stuffed bunny “remote” don’t ask about the name lol, and my son is 10 almost 11 and has to have his bear, bearbear, to sleep with. He even says that if you wash him he will loose his memories. We all have our vice or our comfort…some times you just need to cuddle with something that you know will always be there…

My daughter is 16 and still carries her very first blanket EVERYWHERE but school, It looks like an old beat up towel that has been sewed numerous times,buttons added, etc… it is her security and I’m ok with that whether shes 16 or 62🤷♀️. Every child has something that puts them at ease and usually it’s a blanket or stuffed animal, Tell your sister that YOUR child is YOUR child and you are fine with BunBun and that’s the end of the conversation.
