What a friend of mine did was she took her kids to build a bear and had the girls each put the paci in the bear (after getting rid of all but one binkie btw) that way they always had their binkie/paci and it could still be used as a comfort item
My son was a huge binkie baby!!! I didnt take his away till he was 2 1/2. I started out with taking it away during the day and him being fine with it but I would give it to him to sleep cause frankly I was worried he would throw a fit and wake up in the middle of the night. Finally I just didnt give it to him one night and that was it. He would ask about it every now and then but I would tell him the binkie fairy came and took it away to give to another baby that needed a binkie lol he would say ok and continue what he was doing. Good luck!!
I did it at 18 months with both of my dd's. My best advice is to take it away completely and don't look back. It worked well with both of mine. If you have real problems try getting a different kind and find one that she doesn't and wont want to use and she'll get over it very fast.
