“In this fable, a young crab criticizes his mother for walking sideways, wishing she would move straight like other creatures. The mother crab then challenges her child to walk in a straight line, which the young crab fails to do. The story highlights the lesson that one should not criticize others for traits they themselves possess, teaching the value of self-awareness and understanding.”
