If you have ever met identical twins, you may have had horrible anxiety about getting them mixed up. It’s easier to tell them apart if they have different dressing styles, haircuts, or maybe wear a distinctive type of jewelry or accessory. These are visual cues that may help identify which twin is which. However, what if there are barely any differences in their visual appearance? Even worse, if they are still babies and can’t express themselves verbally.

This is precisely what the mother of two identical twins was worried about. The woman turned to the AITA subreddit to see if she was wrong for dressing one of her twins in blue and the other in green. Apparently, her husband’s cousin had accused her of ‘forcing’ her children to dress the way she wanted them to. The woman turned to the Reddit community, asking, “AITA for exclusively dressing my twin sons in color-coded shirts?”

Scroll below to read the full story the woman has posted and see what the Redditors had to say. What’s your opinion? And if you are interested in reading more AITA stories, check out the recent ones we’ve covered by clicking here, here, and here!
