How bad is Thumb sucking for my child?
Although we cannot find a consensus about how bad it is, we know for sure that it is only a matter of time
until the thumb sucking becomes a detrimental habit. When a thumb (finger, blanket, knuckle) is inside the
mouth, the lips, teeth, tongue and jaw can NOT function properly. They simply cannot work around the
intruder. This leads to an undesirable way of swallowing, speaking and even breathing. If you are reading
this information, we know that your child's sucking habit is of concern to you and we think you deserve a
program that provides an unstresseful solution for you and your child. Learn more about the negative
consequences of sucking habits, and why you need to take action now. Please click the links below to get
more information.
There are too many websites and “experts” who tell parents to just forget about thumb sucking, to “wait
and see,” or to try some quick over-the-counter type substance to shock a child out of thumb or finger
sucking.  You will not receive such harsh advice from us. Yes, there are instances when we should ignore
a sucking habit.  And you deserve to know when to do exactly that. You deserve to know when you should
not spend a dime on pursuing a program. You also need to know when you should invest in a program
that is highly likely to provide a solution for you and your child.
This innovative kit guides your child to eliminate the sucking habit in an unstressed
way through the story of Kayla, a girl who decided to quit by herself.
