No. No. No. No... My thumb is just so damned delicious that I can't stop, I have braces on right now. In fact I've had them for a year and I finally had to put my foot down and tell my orthodontist to put the brackets (or whatever they're called) in to stop me from sticking my thumb in my mouth. He tried to tell me to avoid it and to stop on my own, if that were possible I would have stopped in childhood lol
