If you got a good brand hun with the safety clasp they are designed to break under pressure so they can't choke on them and also it should be knotted between each bead so if it does break only bead will come off.....it's like a watch or earrings...once you have had them on for a while our skin receptors become desensitised to it and youn literally can't feel it anymore. I am glad the novelty has worn off for her and all seems good now....
