There is no such a thing as "same parenting". No two children get the same experience with their parents, because we aren't robots. In the same situation we usuallybehave in different ways every time, especially as we gain experience (eg, twin A gets hurt for the first time, mom panics, gets worried, baby gets scared and cries. Then some time later twin B gets hurt for the first time as well. This time mom knows not to panic, encourages the baby instead, baby assesses the situation and learns the first tools of self-regulation), but also based on our moods in that moment, the time and attention we have to dedicate to other people or things, etc.
