I never gave my son a dummy I felt it created dependency as I went from a dummy to suck.ing my thumb until I was 12 and had to wear braces for ever.

I am pleased that worked for you Nefertiti. Sometimes it is a necessity for some babies.
2 of mine had dummies. They gave them up by their 1st birthdays.
One refused a dummy and sucked her 3 middle fingers until she was 10.
The others didn't have them and didn't need them. One had a dependancy on me, the other on a comforter blanket. Different things for different people.

these were the dummies recalled only last week for fear of choking, so sad this happened to your friend Pj:-(
