When i was about 2 or 3 years old i always sucked my thumb and no matter what my parents did i wouldn't stop. Well any way my nan had lost the top half of the outer fingers on her right hand working in a meat factory when machinary squahsed them.. one day she decided to tell me that it was the result of sucking her thumb when she was my age... i don't think i've ever sucked my thumb after that -_-
