Comic: "You love your wife? Well you wouldn't be a very good Stoic then would you? What Epictetus actually said was that we should love our wives and children while nevertheless accepting that they are mortal.

Your translation is not accurate. Epictetus says that when you kiss your children, remember that he is human and therefore mortal, not that he is just any human being. The idea of the exercise is to accept that we can lose anything, even the people we love.
