To be honest, i have no clue what makes children so loud. I know my boys, whether they are outside or inside, yell like they are having to speak over an airplane or something. drives me crazy at times and i'm always having to yell over them to tell them to use their inside voices. it's constant though and sometimes can make me a nervous wreck hearing loud noises day in and day out. I know, boys will be boys, but sometimes it's just to much and i feel like i'm constantly having to tell them to quiet down. God bless

I have heard that this sort of behaviour is influenced by diet. I think we have produced a generation who are fueled by processed drinks and processed food. All in all if we continue to poison our children is it any wonder that they develop psychotic syndromes?

Lol I really don't know but I have noticed it a lot as well that Children always seem to talk loud
I really can not explain why unless they are talking faster then they are thinking so they need to get it all out and the more excited they get the louder they get without realizing it

I do think it seems to be linked to unbridled excitement and enthusiasm. However, i also wonder if a child used to being ignored will shout simply to get attention?

I think that even we, as adults, will sometimes talk more loudly and/or in a higher-pitched voice when we get excited about something.
Children are excited and haven't learned to use their volume controls yet.
They will usually follow examples, though. If they hear quiet conversations--and are (at least occasionally) allowed to join in on them--they will learn the art of quiet conversation (as in inside voices) as well as keeping the art of letting go in appropriate places.
However, I've also noticed at times where certain kids will use this kind of blaring voice where you can hardly understand their words.
My guess is that the voices they hear the most have come over televisions, radios, computers, stereos, home entertainment centers, etc. that have been cranked up too loudly. They might also be hearing the voices of other people in the room shouting over the din when they want to communicate.
Although my friends and I got loud at times, I can't remember our being especially loud in our normal conversations. When inside, we used conversational voices for the most part.

Badly brought up! Either they are ignored at home and have to yell to get attention or the parents do not know it is bad manners to yell in a public place.

I am the oldest if 7 children, my younger siblings range in age from 14 to 2. I have no idea why they are so loud, i think it's just their volume; loud and louder. perhaps they can't hear themselves? or maybe they just like to be heard? the world will never know...

I think it's because they are still young and innocent and haven't yet had society cram it down their throats that people are for whatever reason supposed to be reserved and restrained and show little or no emotion. I personally think little kids are smarter than adults in that area.

I think they are just getting anybody's attention when they do that. My nieces are like that, they like to talk out loud as if there is no tomorrow and sometimes they are over reacting.

Well, some children are just over-excited about things or something else. They are so carefree individuals, and some children don't mind what's wrong or what's inappropriate behaviour in a place. The parents should guide and talk to them about it.
