“My kids always perceived the bathroom as a place where you wait it out until all the groceries are unloaded from the car.”

Simplified Meaning:
Kids often see the bathroom as a place to hide while their parents are busy doing chores. Imagine when parents come home from grocery shopping and start carrying all the bags into the house. Instead of helping, some kids might run to the bathroom and stay there until the work is done. They think if they hide, they won’t have to help with the boring task of bringing in the groceries. This is like in schools where some students might pretend to need the bathroom during boring parts of a lesson. For someone to apply this wisdom, it's helpful to teach kids the value of teamwork and responsibility by encouraging them to help out instead of finding ways to avoid it.
