In this blog post, we share some of this feedback, whether related to thumb-sucking or other behaviours, in the hope that it will be an encouragement to all who are seeking solutions.
Thumb-sucking is a common habit among babies and young children. In fact, it is considered a normal part of their development and can be comforting for them. However, some children can develop a more intense form of thumb-sucking, which can lead to problems with dental and speech development. In this blog, we will discuss how to tell if your child is a vigorous thumb sucker and what steps you can take to help them break the habit.
Scratching can be a normal response to an itch or irritation, but excessive scratching can have a number of negative consequences. It can damage the skin, exacerbate existing skin conditions, and even be a sign of an underlying medical condition. In this blog post we take a closer look at the causes and management of scratching habits.
Despite efforts by parents and caregivers to discourage the behaviour, it can be challenging for some individuals to stop thumb sucking. It can also be difficult to stop the habit as an adult. In this blog, we will explore the reasons behind why this is the case.
