42 I FAMILIES id you ever want a brother or sister to share clothes with, wait for the bus with, and share your innermost secrets with? Most students did. ln fact, students who already had high school age brothers or sisters were probably the only ones who didn't wish for that special comraderie. But there was another side to the situation. Did you ever want a brother or sister to fight over clothes with, to tell Mom you didn't study, to make you late for the bus, and to tell the whole world your innermost secrets? Nobody did. But even though few fami- lyfstudent relationships were as blissful as those seen on 'Father Knows Best, or The Brady Bunch, few were horror KEEIPIPI' IT IN THQ FNYIILI stories either. The phrases There's strength in numbers, Keepin' it in the family, and SisterIy love, did have some validity. But familyfstudent relation- ships could be a little difficult to get use to at first. lt was always a change when a younger brother or sister started ninth grade. Students thought to themselves, Will she want to hang around with me? Will he stay out of trouble? or l wish she'd stay in middle school . . .forever! On the other hand, it was convenient to be able to ask a brother or sister to pick up your homework while you were sick, loon you lunch money, or give Mom messages. A normal family relationship took on new dimension when twins came into the picture. Even though they were often dubbed double trouble, few twins were exactly alike. Some twins didn't look alike and few shared the some interests or preferences. Because of twins' added closeness, heated arguments often entered their relationships. While every relationship con- tained quarrels, most contained closeness and love, too. Students learned to relate and cooperate in a way that could not be done from a textbook. SHARING A LAST NAME put twins in the same homeroom, which put their lockers side by side. Jeff and Greg Col- ey opted for separate lockers. ONE ON ONE is no problem for twins wan- ting to play a little basketball. David and Darin Going enjoyed a game on the school's practice courts. HAVING SOMEONE TO WAIT WITH was one advantage of o brother sister relationship, John and Gillean Hegner found a quiet place to finish homework before school.
