The kids will be freaked about it only if the parents keep being freaked. Kids are resilient...they'll survive.

This reminds me of a story my friend told me. She and her husband are Jewish and the adopted a baby from Korea. The kid grew up in a very exclusive area outside of LA. When the little girl was about six years old she goes with her Mom to a deli where she sees, for the first time, another little Korean girl. Noticing they look alike, she goes over to the stranger and says, "Do you speak Hebrew too?"

I agree that they most likely will do just fine, and particularly since they're twins, growing up together. They'll never feel like they're the only kid in the world in this situation, and they'll always have somebody they can talk to about it who really understands.
