I saw this meme today. At first glance, I did not get what the author meant. Pero Napagtanto ko baka ito ang ibig niyang sabihin. See if it matches yours.
The phrase "do as I say, not as I do" is the same as "Follow what I say ... and don't follow what I do.
The message of this meme means that the children have to follow the instructions or advice given by someone, even if her actions contradict what she is telling them to do.
It implies that, while she may not be practicing what she preaches, her words still hold value and should be taken to heart. This phrase is often used in situations where someone acknowledges her own shortcomings or hypocrisy but still wants her instructions followed.
But the meme above is not what the phrase says. If you look and listen closer, she is more of saying "Do as I say ... and do as I do."
Or was she just telling the children: "Tingnan ninyo ako ... bakasyon grande ... naglalamierda pero may sueldo."
