If I do wear gloves I'll end up probably taking them off, and when I wear nail polish remover on my fingers I still end up sucking them.

Ask someone to slap your hand away from your mouth every time you do it during the day and... at night brush your teeth and think of how your teeth will get dirty again and you just wasted tooth paste xD or paint your nails and think of what a shame it is to ruin them!

I used to have a thumb sucking problem, and the tape method worked for me! And I was definitely a stubborn little thing haha.

Try band aids instead of tape.

You can buy a nasty tasting nail polish, or just use remover or a top coat before going to sleep. My sister sucked her thumb for a while, and we did that every night for a week and she stopped.

My cousin used to do that and she tried lemon juice, bandaids and she doesn't do it anymore.

Thankfully my mom broke me of that when I young, she tried everything, I believe band aids are what ended up doing it. You do need to quit it bad though, it caused me to have an overbite which really affects eating and it hurts so bad to fix.

I used to suck my thumb till I was like your age, you just have to try everything these girl's have said and kinda just be determined to stop. The reason I stopped was coz of my teeth too, dentist told me if I carried on sucking my thumb I'd need braces, that got me to stop lol
I still occasionally chew my little finger now though, when I'm concentrating using a pc or something I chew my little finger between my back teeth, just gently but I do get blisters on my finger lol, everytime I do that my boyfriend will just take my hand away from my face and keep hold of it, he's been doing it since we got together and I hardly chew my finger now lol =]

Put hand sanitizer on your hands so you won't put them in your mouth because it tastes NASTYYY.
