Teachers only shout when they are no longer in control. I trained as an F.E. teacher and it didn't take long for me to realise this. As soon as you raise your voice control is lost and if the students are so inclined, they then know they can disrupt to their hearts content. I can remember when I was at school. I was as guilty as anyone else of taking advantage of the teacher who shouted. In the end it becomes a game to see how far it can go. It is difficult to keep calm in certain situations, but it comes with experience.

It really doesn't get you anywhere no, and I pretty much never shout at my 3 year old, if he's really not being good then I just pick him up and put him in time out. I tend to talk to him about what is wrong instead, and that sorts it out. But then again, he's not that naughty really, pretty good kid, but maybe that's cos I've always done the talking/time out thing?
Anyway, I would say the only time shouting has to happen is when they're in immediate danger, and if you only shout at those times then the kid responds straight away, whereas if you shout always then they're not gonna listen when they really need to.
But, the real reason parents/teachers shout is because we're stressed and frustrated and can't think what to do, and take it out on the kids. I work in a nursery as well as having a 3 year old so I can testify to that! I don't shout at work, unless immediate danger. At home, I pretty much don't, but everybody is human and sometimes just can't be helped. Then you just have to apologise to kids and say sorry, mummy just got really cross and explain why, and get them to say sorry for behaviour too.

My parents didn't have to shout cos I respected them and although didn';t always agree with them, never answered back. These days kids have No respect for their elders, don't listen, and get everything they want. Yes I've made this mistake and I have to shout, but what is the point, they still don't listen.

Parents shout because they are frustrated. Teachers shout because parents have conditioned their children to keep going until they hear shouting.

Why do you shout? When do you shout? Parents/teachers are people just like everybody else, they get frustrated or angry. They want to be heard and listen to. Just because they are parents/teachers doesn't mean they don't react to things like everybody else.

Because the kids these days are enough to drive parents (and teachers) to the grave. Seriously.

You're right and most parents/teachers know it too. Unfortunately, when stressed and pressured out they only remember while the echos are still reverberating around them.

To be heard over the screaming voices of all the children!!!
The only other thing I could suggest is buying a loud whistle.
