“It is not until you become a mother that your judgment slowly turns to compassion and understanding.”
— Erma Bombeck
Simplified Meaning:
When you become a mother, you start to see things differently. Before having children, you might quickly judge others for their choices or mistakes. But once you have your own child, you realize how tough parenting can be and how many challenges there are. This experience makes you more understanding and kind toward others. For example, if you see a tired mom struggling at the grocery store, instead of thinking she's not doing a good job, you might feel sympathy and offer to help. In your own life, this means trying to put yourself in other people's shoes before forming an opinion, especially if you haven't experienced what they are going through.
