[quote=Anonymous]I have twin 12 yo boys. No, you do not need to invite both. It is nice to include both boys, and 90% of the time, my boys do the same things with the same people. But they are individuals and you can invite one, but not the other. It is up to the parents to handle the situation and to teach their children that they are not a unit, but are siblings. They get to do most things together, but sometimes they don't get to do the same things. We've had a couple situations like this (infrequent), and it's our job as parents to do something to make up for one twin missing out on an experience. In this situation, we would do something with the twin at home that he likes to do that his brother doesn't. We could order dinner (or go out) to the restaurant that his brother hates and always vetoes. We then might watch a movie that the twin staying home wants to watch for family movie night, but the other twin vetoes. Stuff like that.[/quote]
