Emotionally Healthy Twins by Dr Joan Friedman is a book that has been on my list of top 5 books for twin parents so when Shelby of DoubleUp Books offered me an opportunity to review a complimentary copy, I jumped on it. I was not disappointed. To give a background on this book, the author is an identical twin, mother to twins AND a psychotherapist to families with twins. That gives her a very unique court side view on the issues of raising twins. The main gist of the book is that twins need to be allowed to developed as individuals and not as one half of a whole. That's the best way to ensure that they grow into balanced adults. My full review is available here and as a plus, DoubleUp books currently has a 10% off cover price promotion going on.
This book gave me some food for thought and made me develop a more serious action plan for certain things I'll be doing with the twins.I'll share those in tomorrow's post.
