One of the things that I learned early in my work is the developmental requirements for understanding irony and sarcasm. While we sometimes think of our kids as being more than capable of sarcasm, the research tells us that understanding the subtleties of irony and sarcasm in a developmental process that involves the coordination of multiple brain areas. According to Ruth Filik and her colleagues, “children do not seem to distinguish between irony and sarcasm until the age of nine or ten, when they master second-order mental state reasoning.” Another group of researches finds that “Although middle-school-age children can correctly dicern the sarcastic speaker’s meaning and attitude, appreciation of sarcasm’s humor develops through adolescence,” and development of full understanding of the nuances of both communication continues into adulthood.
-I think that’s the biggest watch-put with irony and sarcasm: Are you dressing something up in humor that actually requires clarity and honesty?
Emotion: Confusion
Emotion: Hostility
Emotional Resonance: Worthless
Emotion: Disconnection
– The second watch-out is about perfectionism. There’s actually a “perfectionism social disconnection model,” and this research shows that people who are high on the perfectionistic traits scale behave in ways that cause perceived and actual exclusion/rejection by others. In other words, my perfectionism drives me to show up in ways that lead people to push me away. This doesn’t surprise me, but it’s still painful to think about, because ultimately our perfectionism is about trying to avoid being excluded or rejected.
I hope everyone watching benefits from this collective healing!
