Twin Talk Tuesday is back! it's been a while...but we are back and settled into Atlanta. NOW...what should we do about Ava and Alexis hitting each other??!
Alexis: “why they get a award when they play soccer?” Amy: “your working hard to win.” Alexis: “and I am working hard to not get in trouble.” That was the best part. Kids know to much nowadays 🤣🤣🤣
Obviously there is a bit of a power struggle between these two. Since they are often together, they are competing for their mom's attention. You can see this when Ava is talking and Alexis looks frustrated, she is feeling like her sister is getting all the attention. And when the parent addresses one of the twins directly you can see them seize the opportunity and try to say as many things as possible and keep Mom's attention on them. I think maybe this dynamic is extending into the twins' relationship when they are apart from parents too, with Ava being the "dominant" one in the relationship and bothering her sister to get out of bed, etc. Ava appears more assertive, at least in the scenario of both twins talking to Mom at once. Alexis maybe feels a bit resentful at being bossed around by her sister who gets more attention from Mom anyways. Being talked at/over by Ava could remind Alexis of her frustration of trying to get a word in during conversations, thus bringing up those negative emotions in a different context and causing what looks like an overreaction. Source: I'm a twin myself. As a kid it was always a competition to be the "favorite". Like if one twin gets in trouble the other will act especially good because it's an opportunity to receive extra positive attention from the parent for being the "good one" in the situation. (This could be why in the picture of them hugging Alexis is crying and Ava is pointedly not crying and trying to appear like the "good one".) The "twin bond" may be cute but also keep in mind it's also an intense struggle between the two competing for resources (parental attention)!
Possibly Micro aggressions cause by too many competitions … better do more cooperative activities than so many competing for this and that … or allow each to have their own channel where they can now be themselves at times
Saying one compliment for every not so nice thing you said and the hugging in a shirt so they are stuck together is something I have seen somewhere. It said "Our get-along shirt"
I remember a video where the girls had to say "I love you" to each other and Alexis said that she never wants to do that again. So maybe you should make them do that when they fight.
The girls speech his really improved. Not that anything was wrong with it before. I just can tell that it's improved alot. Kudos to the Mcclures twins!
That logic though... "I should get a reward because I'm working hard to not get in trouble"... Gotta love kids, they have no filter and are so hilarious... Love y'alls videos!
They might need separate spaces. They're getting on each other's nerves. It happened with my sister and me when we were young. We just got sick of each other. My mother pushed us too much. Dressing alike, doing things together, etc. She didn't allow us to be individuals. We got along much better when we got separate rooms.
"I'm working hard to not get in trouble!" Haha good point Alexis.😂 but seriously, I think all siblings go through this but you handled it perfectly, I do think they need to say "I'm sorry" and "I love you" while in hug time out
Besides sitting in the corner hugging each other for 6 minutes (since they are 6 years old), Ava and Alexis should look each other in the eye and say, "I love you. Sissy!" even though they show it often, and even though Alexis hates being called "Sissy"!💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
"and I'm working hard to not get in trouble" lmbo Alexis so smart!!! I love it, yes girl, tell your truth!!! maybe a little negative reinforcement may work
These girls' reasoning is astounding. Teens and adults pay big bucks to train their brains for their natural gifts of inductive and deductive reasoning. So proud to watch.
It's been a while girls...I hope you love your new house..#ILoveTwinTalkTuesday🥰🥰🥰🥰 I look forward to my shout out too....loveeeee from London. ❤❤❤❤🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
*Mami is to strict on Ava, it's my opinion And Alexis hit her sister like 4 times and she did not get in trouble, but Ava says something abd gets yelled at or mad!*
Love the two braided style love the shirts too funny now that they've been caught they' still being silly girls. I think you should let them do a project together that depends on them helping each other blessings
Excellent idea Ami! My dad used to make me and my sister hug each other when we used to argue and fight! First you don't want to hug, but eventually you laugh because it's so absurd, and then you hug! Sweet!
It's OFFICIAL. These girls are responsible for the my biggest smiles and laughter of my day everyday. How are they so cute? I discovered Jersey first. I didn't realize the girls would have this effect on me. The 'Twin Talk Tuesday' is very entertaining.
@@abikay5755 Xenophobic attacks in Johannesburg ... A student was raped and murdered in CapeTown a week ago and today the man who killed her 4 bodies were found in his back yard
So happy Twin Talk Tuesday is back. One thing you should do to stop them from hitting whoever it is needs to do nice things for the other sister and hug it out at the end.♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I use to put the boys in the same shirt. They hated it!!! They learned how to speak to each other about the problem and process it. They have good reasoning skills today. They are teaching their children how to communicate in the same manner. Ami and Justin keep up the good work it will surely pay off. Consistency is key 🔑
I am used to that now so I don't care🙄🤔 Mamaaaa did you hear Alexis??? I don't wanna say that Ava is your favorite but..... You guys doing good raising them to love each other and respect everybody. .....😘Jersez main man.
