I can't tell you how many times I've seen even good actors and directors miss really obvious context and give missed-opportunity readings to dialogue that should have revealed subtext. So, I'm often inclined to spell it out. As an actor, I don't mind seeing such clues in a script. But it seems to be frowned upon in, at least in some of the literature on the subject.

No character anywhere for any purpose should ever roll his or her eyes. Unless either 1) your play is going to be a zany tween piece for the Disney Family channel; or 2) Mom is rolling her eyes not out of disappointment with dad or the fact that her son hasn't been paying attention to anything around him but because she has the hyperexaggerated gestures of the crack addict.

Perhaps a dialogue isn't the right medium. Maybe a monologue retelling of you original post in mechanized monotone like a Laurie Anderson piece.
