I hope they have a thousand lipsticks, Taco Bell, and a lifetime membership to the aquarium 🥰
imagine a small town where it's just a beauty store, a Taco Bell, and an aquarium.
Ese es un excelente deseo, amigo. OcularZombie ellas amarian ese pequeño pueblo, sin duda.
Don't care for the lipstick but the rest sounds awesome.😊
I read this comment first, and it's EXACTLY the only comment I need to read.
God Bless them both.
@@-rnr37 it’s 2023…
When they said "we're not spiders because they have 8 legs" I laughed because thats such a cute response. These 2 are precious 💜
same I hope that's the response they gave to that kid lol
They’re so funny & precious ❤
Technically, they have six limbs so they would be considered an insect.
What a beautiful, highly functional family❤
@@haiz768 You must feel so original, I don't know a single person whose commented the nerd emoji under someone else, good job
"I wanna be a mom" "I wanna meet an alligator" They summed up the entire life concept
Perfection
I wanna meet an alligator too

The way Carter whispered “a taco”😭🩷🩷🩷 omg they are so freaking cute😭😭😭🩷
and her own answer wasn't even taco bell 😭 they're both so funny
Es como no les dan mucha importancia a la situación va ser complicado cuando sean adolescentes Dios mío es triste está historia que no va a terminar mientras vivan y pobres padres para enfrentar este problema .😮😮
Yeeeees💓💓💓
I COULDN'T AGREE MORE I USED TO WORK WITH KIDS QUITE A BIT AND THESE TWO WOULD HAVE BEEN MY FAVORITES AND I HAD A LOT OF ONES THAT I REALLY LOVED BUT THESE GUYS ARE JUST UNBELIEVABLE AND CUTE CUTE CUTE CUTE!!!!😅😅😅😅
"You don't always need a thousand friends, you just need the right two." That is so true and so powerful.
Kinda poetic right?
I have felt so lonely most of my life and these last few years I've had to deal with the fact that my husband and family might be all I have in the long run. And they're the best friends I could ask for. I cried when I heard those words, they are indeed powerful.
That's true for everyone. Having even one friend truly makes life bearable and enjoyable.
What is there name
The father is so wise. He's so right. His family is truly lucky to have him in their lives.
Conjoined twins are like snowflakes.
These have to be the most adorable little girls I've ever seen. I couldn't stop laughing when Callie was thinking of what her one wish would be and Carter whispered to her, "A taco!"
But then didn't waste her own wish on it a haha so cute and funny
Great kids❤
Neither girl wished to be separated.
Right ! But then wished for something else when it was her turn 😂😂😂
Oh my goodness they’re so cute I can hardly stand it! So charming.
I really love the way Callie and Carter's mom worded the situation; "They are typical kids, they're just in an untypical situation." and I can see that clear as day. Callie and Carter play and are energetic like any other child, they just get around a little different. Much love to this family! I wish them a very bright future and that their hopes and dreams come true!
I'm a minute in and theyve won me over with their cuteness and their funny dynamic. "I'm thinkin" "Shes thinkin over there" haha
I also loved the "shes thinking over there"
I love that Chris seems to make an instant connection with every child he interviews.
Chris has full developed Mentat capabilities!
Chris will be an amazing best father/father figure to every child.
He doesn’t care about children only disabled ones
@@9852323 that’s just simply untrue

Everybody needs to watch these interviews. Carter and Callie are just like all the other kids out there who love lipstick, Taco Bell and aquariums. They have dreams, fears, interests, etcetera. They’re just kids, who happen to be conjoined twins. As humans, when we see people who are different, we automatically just see them as their diagnosis, without thinking about how they’re human beings who are just like anyone else. This was me before I found Chris’ channel. The work he does is life changing and is making a positive impact on our world. God bless you sir❤️
Ah yes, the perfect combo. Lipstick Taco Bell themed aquariums.
bruh, did you even watch the video? The girls literally that, they’d wish for lipstick, tacos, and going to the aquarium every day off of school😭
"They're just kids, who happen to be conjoined twins."
This. This is perfect.
Agreed… but maybe they should rethink Taco Bell. That stuff is unnatural.
Heartwarming...humanity is doing war when there are bigger problems in this world...
Research fruitarian diet and understand root causes of health problems.
We all deserve wisdom and great health.
The way they run originally freaked me out, but then you realize how mobile they are together and it’s kinda amazing. Like you think it’d be hard, but they make that and walking look easy despite both legs being controlled separately. And with 2 sets of ears for balance on a single body too. When they say walking is hard, no one can even imagine how it would feel or be like
I thought walking looked really laborious for them, but using 6 limbs much easier ... although I wonder how that will be when they're 40.
@@vicksenful Not to bully or make fun but that's actually pretty funny. It's probably a pain in the neck
@@vicksenful
I also worry for them when they're older.
@@davidadams2395 I mean, best outcome is they're probably less prone to falling like a standing human would. When you get older it's sometimes just easier to crawl, it might even put less strain on them because it's more limbs holding them up. Who knows tho.
@@davidadams2395They can't be surgically separated right? Could be risky even if each has a heart and their backs are separate.
These darling little girls are spitfires. Their man clearly has a great influence in addressing issues that they have with moving and interacting with their peers. I really admire this mom's sense of calm and acceptance of Callie and Carter's sense of self. They are lucky they have her and vice versa. I love how the dad introduced us to "his" girls. Those little girls are a gift. And so are their parents.
Their man?
Is "their man" supposed to be "their mom"?
It's cool to see how Carter is more talkative and Callie is so patient and just vibes. Their personalities seem to work really well together.
Да-да! Я тоже обратила внимание, что Картер болтушка такая,а Келли больше молчит! Пусть они проживают счастливую и долгую жизнь в любви и радости! ❤❤❤
I have no idea what they said
Muito amor é a solução para elas e muita seleção de verdadeiros amigos.
Что будет когда повзрослеют))))) когда уже их не смогут

I like how distinct their personalities are. Callie is much more mellow and introverted while Carter is clearly more of a leader. They complement one another very well.
And Carter is the one with the bob and the ponytail in front?
No, that's Callie. I see Callie as more of the leader myself, although Carter is chattier lol. @@user-sp4jf3uz4z
@@user-sp4jf3uz4z yup!
They are so sweet. I love when Carter explains what they might do if they want to do different things - 17:03 - It's such a clever and amazing way to compromise and find solutions.
They are just two little kids being silly together, just like everyone else. I love that. They are little goofballs in the best way possible.
"Two typical kid in an atypical situation " The mom is right
They take turns being upright for each other when each wants to speak. So beautiful. They’re amazing, and their parents are, too.
@@haiz768 It definitely is, shame you missed it. I don't think the original poster meant physically beautiful though their radiance does shine through, but rather the respect and kindness they show to each other, in their whimsical nature in the face of a life most of us are not envious of, of the nurturing of the mother and father. If you're unable to see the beauty in any of that I pity you.

You asked Callie about her wish, and Carter kept telling her to say "Taco Bell", but then when it was Carter's turn, she didn't answer "Taco Bell". 😂
I also noticed that while Callie focused on lipstick, fake nails, and dolls, Carter focused more on video games, alligators and the aquarium.
What sweet, smart, considerate girls. It's really cool how they asked about each other and figured out a way to both do what they wanted to do. 👍👍
Their dad did point out their different personalities ;)
Callie and Carter are absolute little darlings. I love how chatty they are. So glad mum and dad stuck to their guns and brought these sweet little girls into the world 💕
yes!...best decision that the parents ever made!...what a blessing to have these two around!...so full of life and energy they are both funny and very intelligent for their age!❤
it does make me feel bad though
@@sheedee2it was the wrong decision and i bet they regret it now .

Remarkable sisters. I hope they live a long happy life. They deserve the finest life has to offer.

They have two very distinct personalities despite being next to eachother all the time I find that so cool
Of course, they have two different brains (and two different souls if that's your cup of tea.) I love that too
Yes, and it goes to show that no matter how or what someone faces in their life that they'll still be someone unique at their core from day 1

I don't think its that obvious, they have pretty much the exact same environments and genes and even some organs, it is interesting that they developed such different personalities in spite of that@@Mila808g
@@Mila808g Well it's like the nature nurture thing. It is very intriguing for two people to have the exact same genes and almost the exact same life experiences and still be so different.
Thanks for doing this work, Chris! It’s important to show disabled folks as actual human beings. So often, disability is seen as something to hide or to exclude. We’ve gotten better, but these videos help make things better!
wow so derogatory
@@brian8902 It's not derogatory though, they're right. It's shameful, but our society does often treat people with disabilities like a hush hush topic that should not be mentioned. That's just true. And OP implied that's not right. Which it isn't. And please don't start with "disabled" is a derogatory term, not a single person I know with a disability has anything other than an eye roll for "differently abled". Not a single fat person wants to be called "heavier person" or whatever the term is now. Changing the term isn't what makes it better but actually treating people better is important.
i’d hardly say they’re disabled. they’re able to do anything but go in separate rooms, they’re not even fully deaf. i don’t think they fit the definition of disabled.
@@annnee6818 I have always seen my disability as just that- a dis ability. It is what makes it harder for me to live life like a neurotypical person would, therefore to me it is a disability. I don’t find it derogatory, but rather defining. I choose to go by that label.
I think if a person prefers to say difference, or just say the name, or disability- whatever they want to call it, that’s their choice and how they view their experience in life.
@@kaitlyndoucet2151 they absolutely fit the definition of disabled. They have one or more impairments that substantially limit a major life activity, and it have malformations or disfigurements that would be protected by the ADA and the Rehab Act of 1973. To deny them such a classification would be to deny their legal protections.
i love how callie and carter move and share space 🥰 they are so clever about how they navigate their world! rolling onto the couch, crawling, spinning, climbing, sitting in every possible configuration - all sensory delights and liberated movement! coordination at is finest! 🌟
I'm gonna say it. I feel so bad for them. I genuinely hope they set them up for life care and do not put the burden on their son. Because I was the child who carried the burden knowing I'd have to care for my older sibling.
Abby and Brittany Hansel ( conjoined twins) are teachers now. They are REALLY good and the kids love them. These two are Cutie Pies. My dad, a Pediatric surgeon of forty years, discussed conjoined twins to me when I was a kid. I had a lot of questions. He has had a few difficult cases where he was head of the final team. When separation is considered it takes SEVERAL months of planning , possibly much longer. Consultations , meeting, discussions as well as practice runs are done until the final team of surgeons plus anyone else who needs to contribute in OR work in concert like a symphony when the time comes. Specialists are flown in from all over TO be that team. There is always a back up plan. Just an incredible process. It all depends on how they are conjoined. These two are doing great! Intelligent, healthy and best of all THEY ARE BEST FRIENDS!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Surgeons are heroes but you don't often get to see one until a doctor deems you worthy of their time.
Very interesting. I love Abby & Brittany and have been following their story for years. They have the cutest personalities.
I haven't seen an Abby and Brittany update in years! ♥️
❤
@@karenespindola7 Not so, they each have their own hearts. They possess only one urinary bladder, only one "bottom," but separate lungs, separate hearts, separate spinal columns, separate minds, thoughts, & pedsonalities. However, their parents have chosen _NOT_ to risk a separation surgery, as they have done SO VERY WELL as conjoined twins! (Thought you'd appreciate the clarification.)
I’m always amazed how conjoined twins coordinate their movements without speaking. Humans are fascinating.
I was so curious if they can somehow feel each other physically.
@@rustcohle9267 I mean sure. They can feel when the other is contracting their muscles and all that. But there’s been twins who can play sports together. That kind of being in sync has to be a mind melding of some sorts that only they would understand.
@@haiz768 Haha, I mean they are, right?
I love what the dad said about every set of conjoined twins being a snowflake... that’s a beautiful way to put it. I don’t think I’d separate my own either.
Those wishes, Tbell, numerous lipsticks, and every day aquarium trips, sound like the good life to me...
I always find it adorable how hard it is to keep kids on topic.
They have all these thoughts they can't decide! So precious
@@monicaalfaro9275 😂😂
🙏🏻🌹🦚🥰🤗
People can say whatever they want about these two; they are just an average pair of sisters. they play, they tease, they love, that’s the beauty of life, it’s so uniquely beautiful
there's literally nothing average about being conjoined but I see your point.
they’re not average, and there’s nothing wrong with that
They have to have a better level of communication.
Edit: Not due to hearing but due to the fact that they have to negotiate where to go and what to do all the time.
They can paint a rosy picture all they want. This is going to be a really hard life. 🙁
@@Bargeonin It will be hard but many people have a hard life.
Okay, how they move is probably the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen. The fact that they don’t share a brain but can walk in sync like that is literally mind blowing! How in unison they are is beautiful!!
I just can’t imagine giving birth to conjoined twins… it must hurt a lot!
in these cases, a cesarean is performed. idk english
@@naomigrimberg3505 cesarean is right. usually called a c-section
It broke my heart to hear about the kids at school calling them a spider. Parents teach your children that its ok to ask questions its ok to be curious but its not ok to make fun of anyone. This starts in the home. Teach exceptence, teach that were not all the same were all different in our own unique ways. Everyone deserves love and exceptance. Everyone deserves friends. I think they are smart, fun and taken well care of and loved very much.
Don’t know if the kid said it to tease ,or if he was genuinely confused and made a comment without thinking . The kids are pretty young and don’t always understand what’s ok to say aloud. Explaining it kindly to them without anger, is the best lesson.
They do look like a spider tho 😊 a cute, little spider. I see no offence in that
@@Svetlana_Zakirova : You're wrong.

Can you imagine them on Twitch!?
They can beat any multiplayer game they come in contact with! That’ll be so cool to see.
yeah, their parents seem very warm! good vibes
I can’t even imagine a life like that. I wish them much happiness
That crawl is the coolest thing

Looks like these two little darlings have wonderful parents and a loving home... They are both so adorable!
I remember reading Violet and Daisy's story (another pair of conjoined twins) and they said something like, "We saw others walking by themselves and we felt sorry for them, because they were not as we were." They were beautiful and talented women whose suffering came exclusively from the terrible treatment they received at every single stage of their lives. They were always thankul to have each other 💙💜

There's something poetic about the fact that all conjoined twins have unique anatomies. Everyone's special, but they carry their special on the outside and express their uniqueness in everything they do.
These little girls are a testament to their parents' unconditional love and regard for them. I love that they are such happy and talkative little girls.
i think the dad has an amazing outlook on life and this situation. God bless him and the family. 😇
nothing but positive vibes from this family. those parents are such a nice down to earth people
Their mom is devistated, as anyone would be
I love that their dad makes them do chores ❤
Lol right? Such a dad, picking them up and throwing them on the couch and stuff haha
Yeah, chores are good for kids. They are learning things they will need to know how to do as independent adults.
Why wouldn’t they?
@@hopeadler507 Some people might treat them differently (maybe out of pity or extra cautions) because they are different.
@@nightyew2160 they will never be independent adults
Their just normal kids in an abnormal situation and I think thats awesome
I see them doing gymnastics, playing cards, doing each other’s hair, nails and makeup. There is so much potential in them!
🙏🙏🙏
I commend the mom for sharing her truth about how she struggled with thoughts and decisions throughout the pregnancy. All the best for these girls to prosper as the get older.
@Violetta Denisova I study Polycephaly in animals. Recently at the lab I work at we have found that this is a genetic adaptation for all animals, instead of just being random fusion of embryos. So in reptiles that have the genetic trait and proper nutrient consumption, they will give birth to a dicephaly offspring. Which can benefit from neural symbiosis, better cell dispersion, and better regenerative processes. While I cannot speak to these adaptations in humans, I see some signs of these adaptations in Callie and Carter. They only disperse hearing into 1 ear per twin because its more advantageous. If you watch Callie when she moves her legs, Carter will tick (most likely because Callie has main control of dispersion through the CNS). Also I don’t doubt they have really good muscle development compared to most people. So I dont think anyone belongs in a zoo, they are an attempt of natural human genetics to evolve and move forward.
I can't see this as adaptation if you can't survive on your own in nature
@@barodrinksbeer7484I have never read such crap. Is this 'evolution'? No it's two little girls who are condemned to an abnormal life.
I was asking myself what I would have done in her situation. And I really didn't find an answer...
Questa è vera Ignoranza!
E ben poco realistica....
Compresi tutti quelli che ti han dato il like....
È assurdo tutto sto buonismo irrealistico!
Their dad's words of wisdom are beautiful. Those two girls are in good hands. May life treat them well.
What’s sad is that it probably won’t. I hope they grow to love each other even more. I hope they have forever support from family. I’m “normal” and my family barely talks. Life is so hard. I truly hope the best for them.
Carter just has so much to say and I could listen to her all day. 😂
I couldn't. I had enough of her voice after two minutes
Carter would be that grandma that wouls just ramble on and on and on and on even to her 10 year old who just wants to go out and play lmao..
@@Leeann-rz3ei Well they are getting interviewed so of course she's gonna talk a lot
@@Leeann-rz3ei first of all shes a child so no surprise shes gonna chit chat a lot and second of all its a literal interview what is to be expected???
It's utterly amazing that this is even possible.
One of my favorite thing that kids do is narrate out little scenarios. Whether it's them describing the things they do or just imagining, they all do it and it's funny every time.
I work at a toy store and it always cracks me up when a kid this age tells me a story- they jump from subject to subject so quickly, they’re just so excited to be talking about whatever they’re talking about 😂
That so many parents want to show their special kids on this channel, speaks of a desire for us to be more accepting, more compassionate, just more. Thank you for giving a voice to these kids.
Actually do it for sympathy and attention but OK
@@purpleperc1012 We all deserve sympathy and attention. I hope you find more in your life!
@@purpleperc1012 I think you are underestimating the importance of awareness and creating normalcy. It is the only way for people to get introduced to all the different aspects of humanity. Don’t put a negative spin on something like this when you have no idea what you’re talking about. I have lived 100 lifetimes so far and the one thing I know for sure is that EVERYONE deserves a little sympathy and attention
@@purpleperc1012 You appear to be doing something for attention.
They are so sweet, energetic and talkative! 😊 just your average little girls.. and the fact that they are best friends and get along so well is so incredibly adorable to watch. They seem so happy and like they have had a wonderful childhood. You can tell their parents love them and take care of them so well ❤
Kids being kids! Such a joy to see these siblings share and grow in their experiences of the world. Credit to their parents for adapting to a world where support for their special circumstance is limited. This video will certainly help others facing similar challenges. Thank you for sharing your inspirational story.
I've been watching this channel for a few years now. I'm just an average guy who struggled with ADHD and depression, and I've had so many bouts of nihilism about life. I've even advocated antinatalism and committed to not having children of my own. But after seeing all these videos, especially seeing these two, my perspective has really shifted. These sisters are beautiful souls and it's incredible to see how happy they are. Life is just so strange and different for all of us.
cool story bro
My son dealt with those systems (ADHD and depression) as well as others. Know they have several places that can help with this. You matter and you're not alone. I may be stepping over a boundary bc you didn't ask, I just felt compelled to write this. You got this!
What you wrote was wonderful and the end was so true "Life is just so strange and different for all of us".
These girls brought a smile to my face, they are so precious.
@@gracep2910 if you want to be rude, this isn't the page/place/community
@@gracep2910 this really aint the place for negativity
If I'm being honest, I've dealt with guilt about having a child with the world so screwed up and climate collapse seemingly around the corner. I don't know specifically why you feel/felt that way about having children, but I do know that there are justifications for feeling that way. And it actually is a cool story bro, because I'm pretty sure the whole point of SBSK is making people understand each other and feel understood and sharing stories is how that happens.
Carter talks a mile a minute and her sister is so reserved but there's definitely some spunk there. Precious kids! They remind me of my own little ones.
I have identical twin sons that are the same age. It brought tears to my eyes watching how these girls are exactly like my own sons. A twin relationship truly is astounding. They fight like crazy, but in the end, they are each other’s world. Lately they’ve been entering into what I call “twin land” together. It’s a place where the only two people who exist are each other. They zone out and play because no one else in the world matters more. Twins are such a beautiful thing to experience.
They are so cute and hilarious 😂 made my day
“We named a Rolly Polly stick but we didn’t remember which one” 😂😂😂😂😂
I really liked how you ask questions like 'What's the best thing about being sisters?' and let them answer however they want because that will reflect their personal experiences and point of views. Not asking them about being conjoined. You really show a sense of compassion and understanding.
They are so rough and tumble with their dad, and cuddly with mom lol. So adorable! I like how they are honest that it is tiring to walk and they'd rather crawl.
I love how the reporter talk to the kids. He listens to them, answers like one should answer to a kid, with kindness, understanding, asking how they feel or felt,... showed a lot of love
Chris Ulmer is an advocate, Special Ed teacher and an author.. This is actually his site...
This video really made my day, i haven't seen such cute children in a long time. They are perfect just the way there are and i love how they run around it's so funny. I just recently saw a documentary about conjoined twins that were separated and it didn't end well for one of them so why to separate them at all if they work just fine? Some people seem to think doctors are gods but in fact, nature made these kids perfect, there's nothing to "fix". The energy coming out from these children is shining and beautiful.. they'll be amazing adults.
It must be so hard to keep these girls focused at school! They seem so silly and fun! I am a teacher and it is hard to keep kids focused even when they aren't literally attached to each other. They seem like tons of fun
I was thinking the same thing! I was a preschool teacher for a little over 5 years and have had students who are very bubbly and silly like these two haha
I know! I work at a girl scout camp with kids around their age and I just know these girls are the kinds of kids that just make everything fun and exciting. I'm glad that their personalities are shown so well here!
School? There’s no way they go to real school when they were born even the doctors didn’t wanna touch it
@@purpleperc1012 Be kind.
you can’t say “if you don’t stop talking I’m going to make you sit at different ends of the classroom” to these two! 😂
I’ve followed these two cutie twins since they were born !! I absolutely love them and so proud of their parents for allowing the girls to choose for themselves some day if they wanna be separated and being the best parents they can right now ! ❤️👍
Where do you follow/channel or handle name?! I would love to follow these little ones and their family. Their story really captured my attention and definitely fell in love with the whole family and the way they look at things in a positive way, but without fear of talking about the hard things, too is inspiring.
Where do you follow them?
My twins were very close to being conjoined, if their egg split any later they would have.
Instead they shared a placenta and amniotic sac. That in itself was so stressful, and to top it off i was 15. I commend this momma and her strength.
MUY, MUY DIFÍCIL DE ACEPTAR. LAS MALFORMACIONES DE LOS FETOS SE DÁN A CUALQUIER EDAD, SIENDO MAYOR LA POSIBILIDAD EN LAS MADRES MUY JÓVENES Y EN LAS MÁS VIEJAS.
And how are they now? And: how are you now, having given birth to twins with 15? I imagine that it's quite exhausting afterwards as well - feed them and maybe still going to school or work later... Wish you are well and all the best to your twins ❤
I love how Callie warned the boy to run, since he wants to call them a spider. 😂💕
I kinda, agree. It's probably not wise to seperate them now. It's their body- so they should make that decision for themselves when they are older and can properly comprehend the risks. The bladder part is a bit dodgey; but i've seen two girls separated and were similarly conjoined. Things did work out well for them in the end. But considering it's such a huge life change, its probably a good idea to let the twins decide when they're older.
I thought the same...these lovely girls may decide when they are older that they would indeed like to live independently of each other, but these 2 parents are so amazing that I'm sure they will support the girls 100% should they choose to be separated in the future ❤
Exactly what I was thinking! I went onto their instagram and was appalled at the amount of comments saying to separate them. That should be their own decision.
I think they are perfect just the way they are. I just wanted to chime in in what you said. Many times, and as much as we would like to give each individual the ability to make their own choices, that is just not feasible. Certain medical issues require parents to make those difficult decisions for their children. In hearing loss degrees that could benefit from cochlear implants, the auditory nerve and brain areas that process sound atrophy without stimulation, so if you get implanted in your later tweens or young adulthood, you will likely not be able to process/understand speech through listening. For conjoined twins, the recommendation is surgery before age 1: tissues need to be extended and grown, graffs prepared, bones grown, etc.; growth rhythms, healing rhythms, brain plasticity, those are all time-framed issues. If they were to decide to have surgery today, the consequences would be brutal compared to when they were born. I think they are lovely, amazing girls who will drive their parents nuts :)
Eu havia entendido que elas dividiam um só coração..
@@karenespindola7 They have completely separate organs aside from their bladder. So yeah, its possible. The issue is that they will each lose a leg and one will have to have to have another surgery and wear a bag to hold their pee for the rest of their lives. Basically. So it would be a very life altering operation, for sure.
These little girls are absolutely incredibly bright, confident, sweet and well adjusted, even if they were not conjoined!
Holy cow, what an amazing family!
WELL DONE MOM & DAD!!!
Thank you for sharing your truly special family!!
"there's.always ways to alter the story or better yourself..." that's the gold right there. Thank you for this inspiring family, blessings and love to you and all.
kids are lucky to have such amazing parents
AMAZING PARENTS! Callie and Cater are definitely 6 year old, and living a happy life, what more can you ask for them!
I second that. Such great parents.
Yes, they are just the best!
How are they amazing parents they allowed a mistake into this world to live a very lonely in oddball life is one thing to be a conjoined twin there’s another thing to be human a worm
@@purpleperc1012what's wrong with you? How could you say that about them?

When Carter asked Callie if she was okay after they jumped made my heart melt😫💕
Omg, they are going to have soooo much neck and back pain when they're older. So heartbreaking. 😢😢😢😢
I was thinking the same.
It fills me with so much joy watching these girls rip around laughing and squeeling !! I hope they have the best time !!!
Callie and Carter are such distinctly different girls, but they work together so well! I can definitely tell Callie is the more quiet type while Carter loves to chat. Even while Carter is talking, she knows Callie well enough to say some of her answers for her, and Callie seems quite satisfied with simply chilling out. It's lovely to see them be so different yet so emotionally connected with each other.
I think it's cool how they take turns being in the sitting up position, like they have an unspoken agreement! I hope they always get along as well as they seem to in this video...they don't always agree on everything but they compromise. And that should be a lesson to us all! God Bless these sweet girls and I wish them both a happy healthy long life❤❤❤
They seem happy and normal but also seem uncomfortable as well, so talkative 😂
Oh my goodness, they’re so cute and funny 🥰 I started giggling when they took off into a sprint, they seems like rambunctious kids (the best kind, in my opinion)!
These girls are so cute, smart, and adorable...but what struck me the most was the maturity of the parents and thier well balanced perspective + thier prioritization of the immense value of the lives of thier daughters. We need more parents like them of children in this country. Those girls will probably have a better life and a brighter future than many who are gifted with what we ignorantly classify as "normal" bodies and situations. God bless this family in every way.
Same! The parents are lovely. You’re doing an awesome job, guys!
My daughter is 2 1/2 years and autistic. We also have a 12 and 13 year old. I’ve watched this channel for awhile now and this dad gave the BEST advice I’ve heard. “A new life adventure that we weren’t prepared for is not the end, no matter what it is. There’s always ways to alter the story” Perfectly said
I like that advice too. It almost made me tear up a little bit.
💝
I love that so much. We can all alter our own stories, too
From a fellow mom of a now 20 year old autistic son, your comment resonates as so true! I've learned so much from him. ❤
Yeah, and it would be such a much more beautiful world if we would allow all of us to be as different as we are instead of longing for all the same beauty standard like models!
I appreciate that these parents were encouraged enough to get these twin children and even have a brother afterwards.
I feel so touched in a good way.
Thank you for introducing your kids to us.
Love to all of you,
nice family!
Maren
PS
Did you ever thought about sign language for the twins? Might be easier for their communication if they are partly deaf. I am amazed how good they speak even if they are partly deaf. As I know from my sister that spoken language develops even better when deaf or less able to hear people learn first sign language. Because they will be able to express themselves more fully and after understanding the grammar of sign language they will be able to express even better in spoken words.
Just give it a try ❤
The crazy thing is that .. LITERALLY!!!! 5 minutes into the interview you completely forget they are joined or DIFFERENT in any way shape or form.. their personality is so massively STRONG that anything else just melts into the background.. I have to wonder if these personlities are forged by their difficulties.. because they show more spirit and personality than the next 10 kids their age.
When they grow to middle age and beyond that anatomy is going to cause arthritis because of the pressure on their joints that aren't designed to hold weight that way. Hopefully there will be medical advances that can help them. Also they can't stand upright. It's works indoors in their own home to move around as they do,really like most kids do, but I guess they have to have some kind of wheelchair to be out in public when they're adults. It looks like they can't really sit upright though either So it would have to be some specially adopted wheelchairs of some kind.They have a lot of physical freedom cause they could just bop around on the floor furniture right now.
The mother should be ashamed of herself going through the pregnancy, especially knowing at 8 weeks what was going on. It's going to be very hard on these girls as they get older. I can tell they are already uncomfortable. Shame on that woman. I feel sorry for the girls. This is not a life to live
@@yogaqueen1527Are you literally insane.
If God didn’t want them to be born like this it wouldn’t have happened. You can’t just murder babies because you don’t like the way they are born.
@@yogaqueen1527I totally agree with you.
This was an absolute delight to watch. I am glad this mom showed delight in her twin daughters and decided to show life and love to the beautiful children.
What a beautiful family
So did their Dad.
My goodness Carter is quite the conversationalist 😂 Callie seems content to listen to her sister while she fiddles with her make up or daydreams. Absolutely beautiful young ladies 💜
@18:07 did you hear them ever so softly count 1-2-3 so they could coordinate their jump? No shortage of brain power with these two! Wow!
They have great balance and teamwork!
I like that getting separated can be their choice when they're older if they want to do that or not, rather than the parents making the choice to put them through something like that.
I really appreciate the fathers message at the end. I try to abide by that myself. “Never give up. There are always ways to alter the story.”
Right. Like at 8 weeks during pregnancy.
They just brought the biggest smile to my face.......God bless them.😊
💯 I was gonna comment this exact same thing! Callie, Carter and their wonderful parents brought the biggest smile to my face today! I needed that.... and I truly believe everyone needs friends like Callie and Carter in their life!!! 💞🥰🙏🏼
These two are definitely the Yin to each other’s Yang! Their personalities are so different, that’s what makes them such a great team.
To mom- thank you for having Callie and Carter!! This world NEEDS them!!!
These two darling 6 year olds are incredibly verbal! Quick thinkers, quick wit, great imaginations, sincerity, authenticity and value their own unique thoughts and ideas!
Oh, I wanna hang out with these two! Aquariums, lipstick, Taco Bell... that is my kind of day! Also, "I kinda like my mom more than my dad" 🤣
Are we best friends?? Let's hit up Sephora , an aquarium and get some Taco Bell after!
LOL
😂
what cute, funny little girls. my heart hurts thinking of the difficulties theyre probably going to face in their lives. I wish them all the happiness in the world.
What if one were to pass away!? Does the other go too?
Not wishing this by ANY means just curious. I feel so bad for the mom when she said she was lost, what a hard place to be in.
I believe they both have separate organs so one of them would be gone and the other wouldn’t.
So glad they were born to the most selfless, compassionate parents. Our society would be in a much better place if we embraced each others differences, instead of judging and isolating people who differ from the norm. Quality of life depends on the support and treatment of disabled people, not their disability.
just goes to show that we're still deep in the dark ages with the way our world behaves... very few people are trying to make that difference. even the Prophets of all religions in history have told people that they need to wake up, find peace, joy, happiness within yourselfs. All of Christianty has missed the whole point of their book , they didn't even listen to their God-their God said that the kingdom is with inside of you, if you seek shall you shall find it. many other great teachers said similar stuff- but people don't listen. All of today's religions and beliefs have missed the point they'rs teachers, we have been kept asleep and failed by our leaders
It's so cool to live in an age where medical care can allow conjoined twins longer, more comfortable lives. It's a little crazy to see them take off at full speed, but with that raw speed and strength they'll be first pick for red rover every time. Proud of that mom for not choosing abortion when it was being pushed so hard, Im very hung up on why doctors are so cruel to parents ofnchildren with disabilities
as a twin, i am grateful i was not in this position in my life and i feel for these two girls. i wish them a happy fulfilling life
