[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The parents should have separated them. [/quote]

One would have to die. It would be like Sophie’s choice. I think they did the right thing. [/quote]

+1. Both could have died. The risk of losing one or both was too great. [/quote]

One is married and one is tagging along. Abby is 4 inches taller so the other twin has to walk on her toes to keep up. What kind of life is that? They only have one set of reproductive organs. So if they get pregnant who is listed as the mother? [/quote]

It's a better life than many people have. They have very full lives. [/quote]

They have no individual autonomy. One has to go where the other wants to go
[/quote]

Their parents had autonomy when they decided how to deal with their daughters' condition.  Your question, "What kind of life is that?" betrays supreme ignorance about how many, many humans live.

This is one of those situations you can't judge unless you're there yourself. Curiosity is understandable, but the twins and their family have had to make deeply personal choices that are none of our business.[/quote]
