Strategies for coping with and helping loud children

Just because children are loud does not mean that they are bad children. There could be several factors that could contribute to your child being overly loud. If you have a child who speaks loudly then you need to determine what is the reason they are being this way.

You need to eliminate problems that could be the cause of your child being loud. If it is a medical condition, where they have a problem with their hearing then you need to get them to a doctor to find out if it is reversible. If it is not reversible then you need to find out if you can have them fitted for a hearing aid. When your child has a hearing problem, it can affect all aspects of their life. It can affect their learning process and can cause them to have disciplinary problem. If you are able to find out early on if this is the problem then by having knowledge of the situation you can introduce methods into your household to help strop any disciplinary problems. If the child can’t hear you tell them not to do something then they will continue doing it. This also applies at school, if they can’t hear the teacher, then how are they going to learn the subject matter.

If you determine that they don’t have a hearing problem, then you need to find out something else that could be causing them to be overly loud. This could be that they feel like they are being ignored in your family. Children will increase the volume of their voice if they don’t feel they are getting the attention they deserve. The louder they get the more they are crying out for help. If this is the case, you need to make sure the child get the same amount of attention as his other siblings. If he isn’t being ignored and just wants attention then you need to deal with the situation in a way that he won’t feel like you are picking on him.

Another reason that your child could be overly loud is because that is the way their voice is. If they have a naturally loud voice, you don’t want to discourage them from talking because it will make them feel inferior. What you need to do is teach them the correct way to talk inside and outside. They just might like hearing the sound of their voice when it is loud. If you work with them and explain why being loud could have a negative impact they will be more likely to listen to you than if you just yell at them.

All children are different and you need to work with them on an individual basis. Every child has a reason for doing something and it could just be that they like the sound of their voice when it is loud. Once you are able to work out the reasons for having a loud child, you will be able to work on a strategy that is beneficial for both you and your child.
