Thumb sucking at age 2 is nothing to worry about. The habit is generally safe until permanent teeth come in. But if you want to stop your child from sucking, try to address the underlying causes. Forcing or punishing your child will only make the habit worse.

Thumb sucking is a common habit in children, especially those under 1 year old. However, if children like to suck their thumbs even when they are older, it will be difficult to give up this habit. At the same time, the habit of thumb sucking also causes many disadvantages to the health and development of children.
