I am concerned about his teeth. One of his front teeth looks shorter than the other because his thumb is always on that side and his tooth sticks out. Also the skin on his thumb is peeling because he has it in his mouth so much. Sometimes he just puts it in his mouth, and doesn't suck on it. I have only recently been trying to get him to stop. I will pull his thumb out of his mouth or tell him to get his thumb out of his mouth.

  1. Put that clear "nail biter" polish on his thumb nails.  He'll hate the taste and not put them into his mouth again.  


  2. the nail polish is a good idea  

  3. i hate it when people copy and paste articles from websites instead of just posting the website for you to click. i looked up thumbsucking on yahoo and this is what i got. good luckk
