different dads. And thats as far as it goes. My Aunt, had a palate
that needed to be shortened...is that a symptom of Sticklers? I dont
think it is but I cant explain where it all came from beyond my
mother who was a middle child of 4 and NO one else had an issue like
her but my aunt with the longer palate. just a curiousity
