My 3 yr old yells a lot, in fun and when he's mad. He just makes loud funny noises sometimes when he playing, walking around. When he is scolded by me he even grunt loudly made up words like "Gock!"
He speaks very well, have been told my educators that he has vast vocabulary and talks clearly.
The problem is #1 when my 5 months is sleeping I am trying to keep him quiet so that she won't wake up and he doesn't listen and of course it escalates into a time out and# 2 frankly it's very irritating.
Am I expecting too much of a 3 yr old by telling him to lower his voice all the time? Am I just making him want to do it more ( I think so)? Is it not fair to him that he can't express himself?
What do you think, ignore it and if the baby wakes Oh well or try to teach him to have more control of his impulses to be loud at this age?
