THE CRAB AND HER DAUGHTER.
What it means

An old illustrated page shows a mother crab and a smaller crab beside her, beneath the heading “The Crab and Her Daughter.” The image refers to the fable about hypocrisy and bad advice: the daughter is told to walk straight, but her mother cannot do so herself, making it a reaction to people who criticize others for flaws they share.
