Answer #7

Throw them out as you see them. Don’t buy any more, and don’t give into her wanting of a pacifier. Throw them out! Bury them in the trash and don’t let her see you do it.

Answer #9

my little cousin went through the same thing she just got of the pacifier last year and she is 6 now. Her mother didn’t do a lot because they justworship her every command. So when I came over I would hide them and they didn’t want to buy more. When I came over again I put them in my bag and took them to my house to throw away. Then I gave her a lot of candy and she forgot all about it.

Answer #10

Pacifiers dont actually cause damage until after the age of 5 so I’ve heard. She will let it go when she is ready but if its bothering you then when the last one pops make her put it into the bin and tell her what a big girl she is. I dont really see what the big deal is with kids and dummys before 4yrs of age. If it comforts them I say let them have it at night time only.
