A childhood belief about sucking my thumb

I used to believe…

that sucking your thumb would cause buck teeth. when i was little my mom tried all sorts of things to get me to stop. one night she put hot pepper juice on it. i rubbed my eyes and got the juice in it. she had to get up and wash out my eyes. i did not stop. i still occasionally suck my thumb when i go to bed and i'm 24
