The article addresses a dilemma faced by a parent of twins regarding whether to buy two Nintendo Switch 2 consoles for their children or teach them to share one. The author argues against sharing, noting that twins often experience unique dynamics that complicate their relationships and sharing behaviors. The need for individual ownership might be a formative part of their identity as they navigate their relationship as siblings. Ultimately, it's important to consider the ramifications of encouraging sharing versus providing for individual needs.
I also think that twins are complicated, and the kids' unwillingness to share might reflect an underlying dynamic they're wrestling with, distinct from just sharing toys.
Insisting on having their own stuff might be a way of working through this. It also helps in distinguishing themselves as separate individuals.
