[quote=Anonymous]I think on average I raise my voice at least once every other day. One of my kids doesn't listen to instructions on the daily and, after the 4th or 5th time, my voice goes up. But we try not to yell in public. The kids also tend to behave much better when out and about. One time we took the kids' neighbor friend to the pool with us and my older kid did something kind of reckless that could have ended pretty badly if not for luck. We were addressing it when the neighbor kid said, wow, you guys are so calm; my parents would be yelling their heads off if this happened in our house. I had to laugh at that b/c I always thought their household was the calm one![/quote]
