Does he go to nursery?

This sounds like my boy twin too (nearly 2). My boy is very needy, but I think boys can be. On the plus side, boys always love their mums.....

Hi,

I've got B/G twins too, three months younger than yours. For what it's worth, I suspect it's down to personality. It's my G twin who does all the grabbing over here. And they both ALWAYS want the one toy that the other one is playing with. Just try not to worry about it too much. I am struggling to get them to understand the concept of sharing, but I'm sure it'll come at some point(!) I find it quite amusing that even twins are rubbish at sharing!

Hey PPP, they have just started going to playschool and there also he cries for me and my DD plays normally.

SuzysZoo, at times I love the attention but it worries me as well, when is he gonna grow up :-)

LaLoose True they will fight for the same toys the other one is playing with.

Hi- new here, no kids myself yet but have experience with twins and triplets!

maybe if you get some new game (or borrow from friends!) - a group activity that requires taking turns. if you explain the rules about taking turns first- and tell them the consequence of not sharing (excluded from the game!) if its something new the novelty might encourage them to play together in order to keep the game going?!! hopefully the sharing would rub off on other aspects of play. well thats the theory -anyone tried that? saw it on supernanny and it seems to work for me!
