[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Twin mom here with fraternal girls.  Given the closeness you have described, putting them in separate classes for K could be too much separation for them at once.  It isn't as if their entire sense of indepdence is created in K -- some of the previous posters need to get over themselves on that one.  If you think they will truly be distressed in separate classes, why not keep them together and over the next year start having them do more things apart.  See how it goes and consider separating them for first grade.

I have had many twin moms tell me their kids were in the same class all through elementary school and chose to take a few classes together all through high school.  I asked each one about individuality and none seemed concerned.

+1 Also twin mom. We kept ours together in preschool b/c the better teacher (we had amazing preschool teachers) They will eventually grow apart in ES. I don't know if their K experience needs to be so traumatic. There is time for separation later. But your twins could just be expressing "fear of K" which is common. There is no need to be rough with your twins...they will gradually grow apart. Mine graduating HS now -- in HS they really changed into very different people without input from the family.[/quote]
