It is a problem that must be dealt with,

Bad news isn't wine. It doesn't improve with age.

Though I continued to say it was an urgent problem, I don't think it was ever treated that way,

You don't know what it's like until you've dealt with the problem in your home.

Don't bother people for help without first trying to solve the problem yourself.
