Question about parenting 10 month old twin boys

I had two twins boys they are 10 months old now. They are already developing a problem with sharing. My youngest is going thru a stage of being clingy to me. I feel that I could possibly be neglecting the other son, but I do try to have one on one time with each of them everyday. What should I do?????

10 Month Old Twins Sharing
by: Anonymous

I have 10 month old girls. In their 8th and 9th month, they would take each other's toys away and start crying. But as of their 10th month, they have made it a game. One will take the other's toy away from her, and they'll both start laughing. I love this stage. I'm sure they're going to have a hard time sharing from time to time, but I guess we'll deal with that when we get there. In the meantime, I say let them figure it out. Referee and intervene only when you absolutely have to. BTW, I love having twins! Lots of work and lots of Fun.

TWin girls at 10 mos.
by: RC

I know girls are different than boys, but right at 10 mos, my girls started popping each other in the face to get toys. Then a month later-it just stopped and hasn't resurfaced! Now, at 13 mos they are giggling at each other and interacting like best buds in the world, its hilarious to watch! Hopefully this is just them exploring! Good luck!

PS. Lots of people said my twins would start testing me and getting little attitudes at 9, 10, 11, 12 mos---they still don't have "attitudes"----yet!

Twin Boys
by: Angel

Seriously, they will change with each new development. I also want to share that I have felt nothing but guilt for spending too much time with one and not the other ( I too have a clingy one and an independent one) and then spending time with their older brother and now younger sister. You do the best you can and know that they will cherish what time you do spend with them. Just make sure you find the time to do it, a few times a week at minimum. I have also done separate nap times and took the time spend with each of them. They love the one on one attention.

My twins boys are just over 2 yrs now.
