As for the thumb sucking, it is not a normal behavior though there may be legitimate emotional attachment to it!. You really need to overcome this habit sooner rather than later!. Try putting some nasty tasting medicine on your thumb to halt your sucking it!. You may not realize this but it is also bad for your dental health!.!.!.detrimental to your teeth and jaw alignment!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Probably not!. Most of us in times of stress turn to things that comfort us!. Just being 13 is stressful!

On the other hand trauma can cause people to get developmentally "stuck", never really maturing beyond the age at which the trauma occured!. If they don't get stuck, many victims can still periodically return to a time they felt safe (before the trauma occured) as a way of acting out!.

If you've experienced anything you'd call traumatic you might think about seeking some professional help to work through it!. Otherwise, you're just 13!. Don't worry about it!. You're friends are probably doing much wierder things!Www@Answer-Health@Com

well "weird" is relative, meaning what is weird to one person is completly normal to another!.

however, those are habits that kids normally grow out of between 5 and 10!. not only is it unhealthy for your teeth, its a sign of lack of maturity!.

no offense, im sure you're a great kid!. but you're a teenager now, its time to move on!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

yes!. there has to be some point where you grow up!. there is nothing wrong with some comfort before bed, but if your Mum or Dad still sucked their thumb, and did it in public, would that be ok with you!? I don't think so!. Maybe you should ask yourself why you do it!. and then stop!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

No, i think it's actually quite normal!.
Since you grew up that way, you still feel the need to be that way!.
Since i was a kid i always played with my hair before sleeping!.!. and i still do it till this day!Www@Answer-Health@Com

No, it can be perfectly normal, I'm 13 going on 14 and I still sleep with my baby blanket!. Not that it was really supposed to be a baby blanket!. :)Www@Answer-Health@Com
