Where do you people come up with this stuff!? My son sucks his thumb and I am happy to report, it is exactly the same size as his other thumb! So now you can move on to the question of world peace!!

NO! A child sucking their thumb is a comfort method, but you want to be sure that you monitor it so that it does not get out of hand otherwise it can have an adverse reaction the the baby's tooth development and growth.

Definitely not. I was a thumb sucker (obviously when I was a baby) and my thumbs are equal size, and probably larger than most other people's. (My hands are on the large size too, so that's not abnormal.) My son also was a thumb sucker and his thumbs are of totally normal size.

No, but it can cause the childs front teeth grow slightly outwards instead of straight.
