My sisters sound like they have the same personality as your kids. The introvert had an incredibly tough time all through school without her twin. She always felt inferior because she was held back. She had a hard time making friends without her twin. Just a tough situation. I think they wish they had reached out to more professionals in making the decision and focused more on the social implications rather than the academic issues. Hope this helps.
Good luck.
OP here. Thanks for sharing.
