The proverb is more correctly" An apple does not fall far from the tree" , which means offspring, i.e, children are generally similar to their parents in character. Not necessarily true, but that is the intent of the proverb.

This proverb means that children are naturally inclined to follow in their parents' footsteps or inherit their traits, habits, or characteristics. Just like how a falling apple will not move away from the tree it fell from, children will typically stay connected to their family roots and traditions.
