[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I thinking singing and dancing are different and require some natural talent. I think being a comedian is also a talent. [b]But I think being funny in the sense of appreciating humor and maybe participating a bit can be fostered a bit. [/b] I think if I came asking how to encourage kindness and hard work people wouldn’t say just appreciate the lazy asshole you have. I love and appreciate my kids for who they are. I also believe I can help them develop on certain directions. Maybe it will take, maybe it won’t but doesn’t hurt to try[/quote] Honestly, understanding humor is about empathy and EQ. My mom has little of either, and she never gets jokes. Teach your kids to see things from other people's perspectives, and they won't take themselves so seriously. But if that's too hard, I can attest that the "psychological trauma" thing works pretty well too. ;)[/quote]
