How Do I Stop My Toddler From Sucking Her Lip by Lamanii22(f): 11:33pm On Jul 03, 2022 |
A very warm evening to you motherlanders! I'm quite worried about my 16months old sucking her lip, it started like recently, I have tried to correct her by tapping on her lip to stop but she's adamant. I need ways on how to stop it, if any one of you have experienced this and was able to stop it then kindly share the tips you used! Thank you, I await your responses. 1 Like |

Buy a pacifier if worried. Left to me I’ll leave the child alone. I personally sucked till ten years old and stopped when I saw none of my peers were into the habit. When I entered university I saw people who never stopped, they were only discreet about it. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Keep tapping her lip when she does or anything to show that it is not ok. You could ask the elderly or older people. Please don't take the advice of letting her be to stop on her own. I know 2 people personally who still suck; one is in his 50s while one is about 40. Not all kids stop on their own. 2 Likes |

ImaIma1:Did sucking reduce their quality of life? |

meobizy: Are you still sucking as an adult? Do you have an adult child that is still sucking? Maybe you are in the best place to answer the question you asked. 2 Likes |

ImaIma1:If I met people who didn’t stop I may have continued till now. You dodged the question. Did the act reduce their quality of life? |
Re: How Do I Stop My Toddler From Sucking Her Lip by ImaIma1(f): 9:03am On Jul 04, 2022 |
meobizy: It is not only things that reduce the quality of life that should be discouraged. Is quality of life the only parameter to let a child keep sucking till adulthood? If we want to think that way, we should not do anything about helping a child stop bedwetting. They can go on till adulthood as long as it doesn't affect the quality of life. 1 Like |

She may or may not stop eventually, because it's a subconscious thing. I was sucking my lower lip until my junior secondary years and I could never control it. I didn't even realize it anytime I did so, unless someone alerted me to it. It stopped when I was close to entering senior secondary and I don't know how. It's not her fault sha. 1 Like |

Leave the child to suck her lips in peace. It has no effect on her growing up. She will definitely overcome it 2 Likes |

ImaIma1:Shifting the goal post as usual. Typical Nairalander. |
Re: How Do I Stop My Toddler From Sucking Her Lip by ImaIma1(f): 1:44pm On Jul 04, 2022 |
meobizy: Shifting which goal post? This is the best you could come up with? You are the typical Nairalander with this response. You are only pained because I didn't play into your zone. Did my response answer your question or not? You want an adult to keep sucking as long as it doesn't affect "quality of life". Why not try sucking your thumb while your boss is talking to you or while you are attending to your clients. If my response didn't answer your question, you can go and look for your yes or no elsewhere. 3 Likes |
