True, but typically banter is
with someone, not
about someone.
The first time I was going to say something (there were a couple of times I started and cancelled -- I'm no one's mother, after all), I made a reference to the repeated crossing of the line between friendly teasing and hostile mocking. But whatever; my students are always "only kidding", too.
