TO BLOW OUT OF PROPORTION

Good morning. Today's expression is: to blow something out of proportion It is used: to say that something is much worse or much more dangerous or serious than it really is. Example 1 I can't tell my mother anything because she always blows it out of proportion. I told her I had a cold and she wanted me to go to the hospital! Example 2 We are all worried about the rise in interest rates but let's not blow things out of proportion yet. Let's just wait and see what happens.
