Wait... Only one of the boys was in therapy? Which means that the other boy was feeling pretty adjusted (and probably a little relieved) without his extremely needy brother around? But moo felt the need to crush one brother's healthy burgeoning independence for the other's extremely freaky co-dependence?
Now that's good parenting.
I hope she enjoys it when her 50 year-old twins are still sleeping in bunk beds in her house, wearing matching sweater vests, and having anxiety attacks anytime they have to separate for more than 2 minutes.
