This is a bit of my rehash of my argument yesterday, but it is hard for me to look at Pennywise the same way as he sort of occupies this realm of "beyond human morality" based on what he is. And I think redrocket brings up a good point here - yes he eats children and yes he does everything he can to terrify them, but that's his literal food source. If he doesn't eat, he withers away and dies. You can't get mad for a kid playing with their dinosaur chicken nuggets before they dip them in BBQ sauce to make them tastier, imo.

Pennywise slept for millions of years. I'm not sure it actually needs to eat. So this would be more like human children consuming live baby chicks who were capable of feelings and lived in chicken cities as the adult chickens were forced by the kids into not caring about the chicks going missing, then piling up their carcasses. And if children could sleep for many many years hibernating without eating, but doing it anyway.
