I read it too. I have a three year old thumbsucker, at night only. I want my babe to give it up when ready; she is not. We don't talk about it much and have never pressured her. She is super mature and can rationalize and explain her need to continue. Moving from a bottle to a cup was a breeze; potty training was quick. She is reading now but is not giving up that thumb. It will be a challenge; it has already begun to affect her teeth and her palate.
