Which is of a lesser evil? thumb sucking or sucking on pacificer? my son (3mths old) has a tendency to suck his thumbs.. so whenever he does so, I will let him suck on the pacificer instead..

Pacifier better than thumb sucking. When my girl age 2 I ask her throw away the pacifier and she is able to understand. My niece who did not use pacifier, she tend to love thumb sucking for many years and her finger turn white because of the thumb sucking and has to seek doctor. I have encounter few babies who never given pacifier, they will automatic use thumb to suck as a comfort. Hope this help.
