[quote=Anonymous]I explain that there is a difference between teasing (laughing at a person) and joshing (laughing with a person), and that it is the person who is the subject of his comments that gets to decide his intended joshing is actually teasing. On the flip side, when he thinks someone is teasing him, he should take a moment to consider whether they are actually just joshing with him. I explained that there will be times when he makes a comment that someone takes seriously, and he would want them to give him the benefit of the doubt that he was no trying to hurt their feelings, so he needs to do the same. And, of course, when you are intentionally making comments about something someone is self-conscious about, it always falls into the teasing camp.[/quote]
