Of course, advertisements are the worst offenders of such hyperbole. (That's what sells.) My favorite opening radio ad line was, "Losing your hair can be devastating!" No, losing a
child can be devastating. Losing your hair is part of life.
And more to my point, so is dealing with nepotism. We can complain all we want about our kids not getting playing time, or we can teach them that the real world is the exact same way. It isn't fair, but it's part of life. Learning how to deal with it is better than making too much out of it.
