Why? Moms or teens please!?

Question

Why do mothers scream so loud?

Answer 1

I think they have lost both their hearing and their minds from dealing with their children!

Answer 2

Not all mothers scream loudly. My own mother screamed so loud I would get cracking sounds in my ears. She was also very abusive and neglectful. I can honestly say that my mother taught me one very important thing: She tought me how NOT to be as a mom.

You must understand that women learn how to be mothers by emulating (copying, immitating) their own mothers. You mother screams like like most likely because that's what her mother did -- or at least the person who had the most influence on her while she was growing up. That is how someone related to her, and that is now how she relates to you. I know this sounds stupid, but it's not a personal thing, and it doesn't mean that she doesn't love you, it is just the way that someone taught her -- the wrong way.

I'm not making excuses for her, but I am trying to give you some insight as to why she does the things that she does: Because she was taught.

Make mental notes in your mind and keep these lessons in your heart as you grow. Watch your own behaviours and overcome those habits that you don't like now so you don't have to overcome them later when you catch yourself yelling at your own children. Ask your friends to help you, to point out bad behaviours that you exhibit -- maybe you yourself have a tendency to fly off the handle without even realising it. We all have our moments when we're less than gracious. And try to be gracious towards your mom; she probably doesn't have a clue how her yelling at you affects you.

Answer 3

Well sometimes it's because kids seem to be hard of hearing. Especially when a child is in danger a mother feels her whole world crashing down on her and all she can do is scream to get that child to listen. She's afraid.

Answer 4

Because the teen has probably been told a thousand times already so the mother raises her voice to get their attention! When mom's ask nicely they are ignored so screaming seems to get the point across... most times!

Answer 5

I scream because evidentally they didn't hear me the first time. When i ask them to repeat it they can't. I am frustrated and angry that they yet again did the exact same thing that i repeatively told them not to do. Yet again they either are putting themselves in danger or someone in danger or just not caring. I worry about my kids and i want the best for them and makes me feel they don't care that they should want the best for themselves!!!!!!!!!! Teens scream because they are angry and they aren't getting there way, they are almost an adult so close to it and they want to be heard and they didn't listen to the mom then so over her they think they can yell and not listen but be heard themselves They want heard but don't care or want to listen to what a parent just told them

Answer 6

Probably frustration. I'm a mom and do my very best to communicate quietly but sometimes it takes yelling to get a point across. Unfortunately if you yell to much the point is lost. If you're talking about your mom take the initiative and talk with her in a non-combative tone and try to figure out the best way to handle the situations that cause her to yell.

Answer 7

LOL!

When my son was still living at home and was growing up I would say to him nicely: "Honey, you need to clean your room" (or whatever). "Ok Mom" would be the reply. Nothing happened. Later I'd ask nicely again. "Ok Mom". Nothing happened. After the third time I had asked nicely and still gotten no response I would get mad and yell "YOU NEED TO CLEAN YOUR ROOM!" And I swear he would look shocked, like that was the first time he had heard the request, but he would do it. After that I decided to save my time, breath, and energy, and go right into the yelling at the beginning. It seemed to get more accomplished quicker.

So, if you listen to her the first time when she does ask nicely, she probably won't have to yell at all.

Answer 8

My mother never screamed.

Answer 9

They think that's the only time you listen, but my mom doesn't scream, so I don't know.

Answer 10

because kids tune the moms out and don't respond the first three times the moms say something.

they don't snap-to until screamed at.

Answer 11

Because their kids just don't seem to get it the first time they are told so with each answer it gets louder and louder. And because we've told them before not to do something and they went and did it again so maybe they didn't hear us well enough the first time
