Twin bonds can exceed scientific explanations

You know how everyone assumes twins have some kind of special telephathy? I don't know it I believe our girls have that special ability or not, but I used to see it with an Aunt/Uncle set of twins.

It might be because they were so in tune with each other more than a special ability, but I always found it amazing.

A new study "Twin bonds can exceed scientific explanations" talks about this with pretty definite results.

Of course, just because there doesn't seem to be strong scientific results doesn't mean it isn't there does it?

No need to split twins for good grades: study

An interesting study done in Amsterdam's VU University.

Their conclusion?

"The choice of separation should be made by teachers, parents and their twin children, based on individual characteristics of a twin pair," the study concluded.

The Power of Two

This is an amazing story about the power of the twin bond. I'm sure you could apply this to higher order multiples as well. It made me appreciate our girls' twin bond even more.


The Power of Two
Separated at birth, twin sisters born in China never doubted that they were somehow part of a pair. Four years, two continents, and a high-speed Internet connection later, they finally met their match.
