Twin's Marriage Annulment

In the wake of the reported marriage annulment of a pair of twins who had been separated at birth and found out too late that they were related this article in the Sunday Times considers the attraction that twins might feel for one another and the dilemma not registering biological parents on birth certificates poses.

On balance I think children should have a right to know where they come from, but given the rate of normal births when the husband or partner of the mother is not the biological father of the child and the potential disruption the truth may bring it is difficult to decide what really is in the best interests of children.
