Ha! Finally a forum post I can really relate to. Dad of twin boys, they are 17 now, and wow!! they are very different people. They are fraternal, not identical. And one is a real handful to keep 'in-line' and the other is the proverbial 'parent-pleaser' he's always behaving and doing good stuff.
But I will tell all the new dads out there, it goes by so quickly. Take lots of pictures, hug your kids often, tell them you love them always. Enforce 'right and wrong' from day one. Meaning don't let stuff slide, if someone did something wrong then apologize and own the mistake.
And for boys - get them in sports, sports, sports - before stupid COVID our boys were on a wild ride of lacrosse practice, conditioning, weight training, and more lacrosse practice.
Since they were age 5 they have always been in sports. Baseball, Basketball, Soccer, Football - you gotta run them hard like the wild horses they are to keep them in-line and get them too exhausted to fight each other. Closing note: I love my sons more than anything else in the world, they can be buggers sometimes, but they are the best.
Cheers,
Merlin
