[quote=Anonymous]My son does not get sarcasm. He never knows to laugh at a joke that is sarcasm. He is learning. He is dyslexic, but I don't know if that matters because my other son is dyslexic and he is all about sarcasm. We also had to teach him stuff like "raining cats and dogs" etc. If you really listen to American's talk mostly we talk in "saying" and indirect language, which is hard for some people ... "that is crazy" "who knew" "happy as a clam" "between a rock and a hard place" Talk to your pediatrician. Teachers/Principals whole job is to pull kids to the norm. Also, imagine it is something and your MIL did not say something. Just tell your MIL that you have talked to the pediatrician and you are monitoring it. My niece was partially deaf and my one SIL sort of figured it (she is a teacher) out but I thought my other SIL would think we were know it all, did not say anything... I feel bad. [/quote]
