MEANING
Do not criticize others if you have similar weaknesses yourself.
“People who live in glass houses should not throw stones" reminds us that we should be careful how we treat other people (with our words and actions) because we can all be easily hurt. People “throw stones" at other people to try to hurt them, and one way that people try to hurt other people is by saying bad things about them. If you lived in a “glass house" it would be very easy for other people to hurt you by throwing stones at you. “People who live in glass houses should not throw stones" means that we should not say insulting things to other people because they could easily do the same thing to us.
