Not everybody has a close relationship with their mother, but a lot of people do. Some people are very protective of their mothers and they treat their mothers like gold.
This is "the mum standard". Meaning, the positive way in which you treat your mother is the same way you should treat other people. For example:
- If you're kind to your mother, then be kind to other people.
- If you're protective of your mother, then be protective of other people.
- If you respect your mother, then respect other people.
- If you wouldn't hurt your mother, then don't hurt other people.
- If you wouldn't insult your mother, then don't insult other people.
- If you wouldn't scam your mother, then don't scam other people.
We shouldn't have two standards, where we're kind to one group of people and cruel to another group of people. We should have one standard, love.
In everything we do, we should seek to benefit others instead of ourselves.
