Jonathan Hoffenberg from The Parent Centre told Briefly News that if you have a good relationship with your children, if you listen to them, and have their trust then yes it is okay to tease or prank your children because it is in good spirits.

"Children can sometimes take themselves too seriously, the average teen for example can be very full of themselves. Teasing or laughing at something your child does can teach humility.

"Humour is a very positive coping mechanism, pranks and teasing can become part of a loving family culture. It can teach hubris, not becoming too arrogant or self-important," said Jonathan, adding that parents should, however, avoid teasing a child who is in pain or who feels low.
