Editorial: Being a Twin is Not All it's Cracked Up to Be

by: Kaylie K.

Having to live with a twin can be good and bad. People think it would be fun to be a twin, but most of the time it’s not.

The good thing about being a twin is that you always have someone to talk to, when they aren’t making sarcastic jokes or slapping you. The good thing of being an older twin is that you’re always being put in charge and you were an only child at one point.




The bad thing about being a twin is that most twins fight a lot! People always ask us if we can read each others minds. Of course you can’t! Having to live with a twin is stressful and you get A LOT of headaches!!

People also ask if Larsen and I like being twins (they think we do) but the truth is that we really don’t. We always say no because we’re the type of twins that are always fighting. The people we talk to say “I would love to be a twin” but I don’t think they will say that when they get a twin!
