Q:What don't you like about it?
M: You fight a lot.
L: We fight a lot.
Q:Is it more fun that just having a regular brother or sister?
M: Yes. You have more in common. If you had a boy twin, you wouldn't have as much in common because you would like different things. If I had a younger one [sibling], you could play with them and help take care of them. But it is more fun having someone your same age.
L: Yes. It's more fun to have a twin because a brother or sister may be away all the time, like in the Navy or something. A younger sister or brother would get annoying, but the bigger brother or sister, they could drive you places where you wanted to go.
