[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t have twins, but as an outsider just wanted to express confidence in you and your kids to navigate this. You have a lifetime of practice, right? One twin gets invited to bday party and the other doesn’t. One makes their travel team and one gets cut. One has a date every weekend and the other has never been kissed. You and your kids handle it with love for each other and value for each other regardless of achievement, and you’ll do it this time, too.[/quote]

I have g/g twins who are not quite old enough to apply for college and this comment is spot on, we have been navigating their differences since they were in preschool. In my case one girl is very pretty, easily makes tons of friends and is invited to all the parties, is a strong athlete and just an ok student. Her twin sister is quiet, very academically strong, and has just a few close friends. They couldn't be more different and someone always feels bad when they are planning to go to a dance or getting report cards. College acceptances will be another trial, I'm just hoping they don't want to apply to any of the same schools.[/quote]
