Hi everyone!

I am really hoping to gain some insights from all of you.  My SO has a 10 year old daughter that carries her lovey (stuffed animal) everywhere.  I have done some research and found that most kids stop this when they are 4 or 5.  It's ok for the kids to sleep with the lovey but to just discontinue taking it everywhere.   I am not trying to be judgemental in anyway but I worry about her development.  Please provide any advice in this area.

Thanks so much!!
