Anna asked her mother if she could drive the car to the store herself. Anna's mom said, "Sure, ten-year-olds drive themselves to the store all the time!" What kind of irony is used in this story?

Verbal Irony

Verbal Irony occurs when a speaker's intention is the opposite of what he or she is saying.

Anna’s mom said that ten year-olds drive thenselves to the store all the time. When in reality, we all know this is false. Young children cannot drive themselves anywhere.

Hope this helps!
