Not mothers, but that is a good answer......

..... a mother might say,

HINT: "Be sure to eat all the vegetables on your plate Maria."

NEW RIDDLE

I'm a collective noun.
Those that form me have one thing in common but widely different living standards.
Something you are doing right now used to be a requisite for this group.

I think it's a plural more than a collective. But not detectives, anyway.

Close. Being able to read was a prerequisite back in the day.

No. Mother comes from the Latin mater this word comes from a Greek word that means "share."
