According to Soinnu, people don’t understand that he doesn’t talk condescendingly to his brother, but instructs on the rules of the game for communication. Sointu also says that he feels as if what he does is being observed with a magnifying glass.
Topi completely understands what her sister is talking about.
– How could you ever talk to me condescendingly? Your love is not wrong, Topi replies to her crying sister.
– Don’t worry about them, they are forever wrong and you are right, Topi continues.
Sointu writes more about the subject in his Instagram post. He says that he thought for a long time whether to publish something on social media.
– I want to thank you for the messages regarding this theme. It has had a healing power. A real healing power.
According to Soinnu, opening up one’s sibling dynamics publicly has been challenging, because there are downsides to it.
– Strangers make comments without realizing that our way of communicating has been shaped in a certain way during the last brisk thirty years for certain reasons. Suddenly, everyone is an expert on the dynamic between us.

Sointu says that some of the comments were mean and even horrible. At first, Sointu had not intended to talk about it in the program, but it suddenly came up.
– Some of the commenters have not even realized that they are acting in a hurtful way. It messed with my head for a while. Even destroyed my self-esteem as a sister.
– We have a loving family. And I have the most wonderful siblings in the world. I am always grateful for that, he concludes his writing.
