It's FUD. Russians don't wand to die with their families. They know that USA already used nuclear bombs in war and will use them again when necessary.

War promoters need to decide whether Putin is crazy or super-rational. He probably isn't both of those things.

Putin would not have invaded if he were not desperately at risk of losing power.
Nobody is super-rational all the time. If he does get ousted he will certainly be killed. His replacement is, by reversion to the mean, very likely to be less rational.

He is also fighting for his final spot in history. He's not gonna live forever.
Russia also has enough nuclear weapons, in unknown places (likely off the US coast), to do a lot of damage to the US. They will almost certainly use them in the face of an existential threat (like being at war with NATO directly), so NATO will do everything possible to avoid that contingency.
