DUMMY

The  use  of  a  dummy  (pacifier)  always  causes  arguments.  If  a  parent  prefers  a  child  to  suck  a  dummy  to  a
thumb, or use one as a pacifier, there is no good reason why not, provided the dummy can be kept clean. To coat a
dummy  with  honey  or  some  other  sweet  substance  is  forbidden,  as  it  will  cause  dental  problems  and  almost
inevitably will lead to the child developing a propensity for sweet foods, which can cause lifelong problems.
