[quote=Anonymous]The key to damaging yelling vs being loud is the emotion behind it. If I modulate my voice to be heard over a din, I may be shouting, but if I do it because I'm frustrated that nobody is listening to me, I am yelling. And the latter kind of yelling teaches that it's OK to let your emotions spill out and harm your loved ones. DH's family are big yellers, he hated it, and so when he raises his voice in anger and I ask him to stop yelling and he says "THIS isn't yelling," I point out that it's the emotion that is making the impact, not the volume. Sorry for how you were raised OP, hope you can create something better for your family.[/quote]
