admitted it was referring to an example of Trump hyperbole. We've talked before about your use of the word, admitted. When you admit something, the thing is necessarily bad. Offering an example of Trump hyperbole is not a bad thing. there is a reason parents should be concerned. That your kid will go off to school and return home after three days with scars from an operation? Are you daft? First of all, if the kid doesn't return home after school, the parents would call the cops. If they failed to do that, the cops would be after them. And second, no one would perform surgery on a kid unbeknownst to their parents. It is not in anyway indicative of some derangement. Among some parents it would be a legitimate concern. Any parent deranged enough to fear that should fear having their kids taken by social services because the parent is certifiable. If you think otherwise, you're nuts, too.
