Dani says:
Yes! and I do not care what people say they are OK! They all had them till they were around 2 1/2 or so and one day they just forgot them! I found a binkie just last summer in our '75 Dodge dart jocky box! Boy was it baked! but it must have been where one left theirs for safekeeping and forgot! Those things are a comfort zone thing! Now I will let a secret out to all- when I am tired i still suck my thumb! Me parents never broke me of that comfort thing AND MY TEETH are beautiful! mater of fact I think if my husband sucked a pacifier or sucked his thumb he wouldn't snore so much! for some reason my tongue stays depressed to the roof of my mouth instead of falling to the back of my throat gagging!!
