...has anyone else managed to wrestle it away from a child this age and how the hell did you do it?
We've tried intermittently for over a year - the first attempt it was like watching a drug addict go cold turkey at bedtime.
Then we tried replacing it with a cuddly toy, nope!
We try to only let her have it at night or if she's under the weather, but it makes it v. hard work as she needs constant entertaining to distract her.
We went to a friends wedding in October and she palled up with my mates niece who was her bridesmaid and was rather taken with the necklace she was given as her thank you present. I thought Santa might write her a letter saying he'll bring her something similar if she gives her dummy up by Christmas.
Any thoughts/advice??!!!
