This means that you have to use everything that you were taught growing up right from wrong and your instinct to make the right choice. Or, what do you think is the best decision for the situation.

A 'judgement call' occurs when there are not enough facts to indicate a clear decision, or the facts point toward more than one choice.
In these cases one must rely on wisdom and experience to make the choice. Historically, a person who is responsible for making such decisions is called a 'Judge.'

A "judgement call" is a decision that is made subjectively (versus objectively). It means a decision that is made on the basis of personal views, experience or background-- not on impartial analysis or research.
