Hi.
My 3 year old has sucked her thumb since she was born. Recently I've noticed other people tell her not to do this: one a lady who works in our local shop, and the other is a new member of staff at her nursery. I don't have any problems with thumb sucking at her age as I've read most kids grow out of it age 4-5, and I really don't see what business it is of anyone else. The only reason I can think that they've started to do this is that she is tall and looks (and acts) much older than she is.
I'm curious to know what other people's think of this?
