Mothers are all slightly insane.
Meaning of the quote
Mothers are often a little crazy or unusual in the way they act. This is because they have so much love and care for their children that they can sometimes do things that may seem strange or overly protective to others. Mothers want to make sure their kids are safe and happy, even if it means acting in ways that others might find a bit unusual or odd. This doesn't mean mothers are bad or wrong, just that their strong love and devotion for their children can make them seem a little "insane" at times.
