የላጭን ልጅ ቅማል በላው ያናጢን ልጅ ጅብ በላው

Meaning

This proverb illustrates irony and neglect of one's own. It means that people who are skilled in a particular trade or profession sometimes neglect their own household or personal affairs, leading to problems that they could have easily prevented if they had applied their skills to themselves. It's similar to the English saying "The shoemaker's children go barefoot."
