Spend an evening with Dr. Klein and Dr. Lewis. They will equip you with practical, effective strategies for discipline and identity development specific to twins and higher order multiples.
Challenges unique to parenting twins and higher order multiples to be addressed include:
• Competition and comparison between twins
• Increased conflict and difficulty enforcing discipline
• Fighting over “right” and “wrong”
• The necessity for tailored approaches for each multiple
• Issues of favoritism and the importance of treating multiples as individuals
• Avoiding punishment of one child for acts of the other
• Importance of clear, consistent rules and expectations
• Discussion on differences between twin personalities and those of single children, and how this affects parenting strategies.
• Acknowledgement that confusion and fighting between multiples can be persistent, but manageable with proper planning.
Dr. Klein is an educational consultant who has done extensive research on the development of twin identity. She is the author of 10 books in the area of psychology and education including Raising Gifted Kids, Alone in the Mirror: Twins in Therapy; and Not All Twins Are Alike.
Dr. Lewis, founder of Twinsight Therapy, is a licensed psychologist in Colorado and Virginia and board certified in Neurofeedback. As an identical twin, she is also one of the few psychologists who specializes in twin and multiple psychology and guidance around complex twin and multiple relationship issues.
