Do you scream at someone who is screaming to get them to be quiet.....?

Question

My daughter does.....LOL

Answer 1

Nah,just tell them if they don't stop screaming,I'm gonna stop listening.

Answer 2

If someone has reached the screaming stage then they are out of control. It is far more effective to speak at normal voice level and firmly to them, repeating yourself as necessary. However, I do sometimes shout at them, not scream.

Answer 3

Does it work for her? I' ve never know it is work. Most of the time when you both scream it ends with slamming doors or some other form of violents

Answer 4

Yes, my daughter too! she screams at her older brother when he just looks at her! We've started calling her on it, giving her choresif she screams..or my husband has washed her mouth out w/soap - oohhh, i would hate that, but she still screams. maybe she's a slow learner...

Answer 5

sometimes until i realize that i am being a dam idiot, b/c screaming against screaming is just giving the other pwrsion the impression that you are challenging them!........lol

Answer 6

It works all the time especially if you scream louder than them!

Answer 7

The best response I find is to talk in a normal voice.

Answer 8

You could if you wanted to but the best way is to wait for them to calm down or just hit them.

Answer 9

well im very hyper-active so i scream all the time doesnt really work but it catches their attention and makes me feel better

Answer 10

yes i do and i can scream and shout with the best of them
