Deliberate attention-seeking title but I need your opinions!
Ds (3.5) has a serious dum-dum addiction (dummy, pacifier, soother, etc) & tonight I made him go to bed without. It was horrendous! Totally behaved like an addict without his fix. I'm in shock. He's asleep now. I cuddled him to sleep but I think he'll wake up in a few hours screaming for his precious dum-dum. Dh thinks I'm 'a bit hard' but his front teeth are noticibly protruding.
What's the best way to stop the dum-dum addiction? Cold turkey or little by little?
