My first son was a huge paci lover. We had him down to naps and bedtime too. Then when he started teething he would chew them, exactly as you described. One day I went in his room, saw that he had chewed it up, told him it was broken. We threw it in the trash and that was it. I did keep another one hidden, just in case, in the garage. But everytime he asked for it, I just said remember, you broke it and we had to throw it away. It is all gone. You are a big boy now, so you don't need it. Paci's are for babies. We had that conversation for about three days then he quit asking about it. Another method is to give the paci's to a baby. Tell him he is a big boys and that baby whatever needs them. That is what worked for my niece. It will be easier than you think once you do it. Good luck!
