http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/25572207/

I happen to be a twin myself & don't like it one bit. It has nothing to do with my twin brother as such,but I was the one whom got the shorter end of the stick,resulting in a life sentence for me of disability and bereavement of the joys of life. something for U would be mothers to think about.Yes!?

Answer 1

I have twins AND triplets!  Guess what?  Everyone is my house couldn't be happier.

Your article talks about the parents of twins, not the twins themselves.

Sorry  that you aren't enjoying your life, but life is what you make it and it appears as though you don't want to make much of yours.  

What exactly do you want would be mothers to think about?  No one can plan to have twins, it just happens.

Find better ways to entertain yourself.

Answer 2

UMM...what? You think that your lifetime of unhappiness is the fault of the fact that you were a twin? Have you ever thought that mayne it could be your attitude? How odd. Why would you scare mothers to be like that? THat's just rude. As if they didn't have enough to worry about.

Answer 3

I had a single and twins....with my single I had postpartum but with my twins I didn't.   My twins are all natural miracles.  The were big and health 7lb 2oz and 6lb 10oz.  We were scared that the boy twin might have problems but he is fine.   The girl twin is just like her eldest brother.    But to throw such negativity into the face of moms to be is cruel and nasty they have enough worries to deal with right now.  Did they mention in your little report that parents of multiples might be getting less sleep than singles.  I got less sleep because I had more than one to take care of.  So unless you think you are better than anyone else get off your high horse and grow up.  You would have the same problem if you were not a twin did you think of that.  Maybe it is your attitude towards life that is your problem.  Just realize that life is not fair and never will be it just is and we all must work very hard to make it a better place.

Answer 4

What's your point?  What is it that expectant mothers should be thinking about?  Most women who are pregnant with multiples are painfully aware of what can go wrong.  I am thankful every day that my children are healthy, but if a child is born with a disability what can be done except to accept it and try to make the best life possible?  I really don't understand what the point of this question is.

Answer 5

no.  

that's horrible to even consider!  both children should be blessings no matter how the packages come.  I have twins.  and I wouldn't for a moment consider ridding one over the other because of health issues.  I was privileged enough to conceive them, and glad to have them.

Edit:  you can not ask parents that question.  that makes you sound ungrateful.  your parents didn't ask for your disability.  but they reared you enough to live with it, I'm assuming.  i honestly do not think that you will get the answer that you're looking for unless it's someone who's answering just to get on your good side for the ten points.

Edit two:  told you so...
