Are you a yeller?

Oh yeah I do tend to holler hopefully not to much but when you have had to repeat what you said 5 times its time to holler only way ya get tehir attention lololol

I will sheepishly admit to being a bit of a yeller. I have 5 kids, all of whom insist they must make as much noise as possible at the same time. The only way to get their attention in such situations is to raise one's voice above theirs. I do start out with a softer voice and wind up to what I call my 'bark'. Sometimes, you have no choice but to yell. It could, after all, save their lives if there is a potential danger around.

Hi Ambie No not me and it really gets on my Nerves when I hear People yell at their Children because they are just making them worse also I don't understand what they are yelling so how is the Child suppose to understand it I will not say that I never ever yelled but I can tell you it has only been about 3 times when the Kids where growing up and that was because my Daughter sometimes was so stubborn when I told her to stop I had to yell to shock her into stopping lol

Hello AmbiePam. I don't like to yell. In class I have some talkative students and then I usually make a hint for them to stop talking and tell them to keep quiet and listen to me. I seldom yell as it does no good to the solution of the situation in this case as they are all teenagers. To my own child, I don't yell, either. So basically speaking, I am not a yeller. I love to settle things peacefully.

Hey Amber! You never yell? I am the "Queen of Yellers"! And, believe it or not I used to be even worse! In fact, I am hoarse right now and I barely remember yelling even! I used to yell all the time until I took Anger Management Classes and got on Anti-Depressants. I seriously have calmed down. My mother yells all the time still and she's 80! And if we both go at it we end up not speaking for a long time! My best friend and I sometimes get into it and yell at each other too! And of course, bf made me yell at him today, but he doesn't yell he just does things to piss me off and "punishes" me! (Long story) I'd rather yell and get it out then keep it in. My whole family was like that so what were my chances?

I used to yell a lot when I was suffering from depression; my sadness would turn into anger at the drop of a hat, so as you can imagine I was yelling a lot at my daughter and husband for the slightest things. Since I have been taking medication and had some therapy I feel so much better and I am able to myself without losing the plot on a regular basis. I still get angry if my daughter misbehaves and I still do raise my voice but now it is only to let her know I mean business and not because I’m on the verge of spontaneously combusting! It is a much better way to live… Realistically I don’t know any mother who hasn’t yelled at one time or another!

I hate yelling or arguing. But I have been known to give it my best when needed..it takes alot to rile me up..because I don't like fighting,arguing,or "yelling"..but at times it is needed to show people they can't walk all over you..or take advantage of you.

I would be lying if I said I'd never yelled in my life but I hate yelling and would rather walk away or talk calmly. Years ago I had a problem with a neighbour and she started yelling at me in the middle of the street, you can imagine the look on her face when I calmly said,' if you wish to yell, that's up to you, I won't be joining in.' My mum used to yell a lot, we rarely took notice of her. My dad used to drive me nuts as a teenager, I could yell at him for a while and he would just say, 'have you finished, can we talk properly about the problem now? It was annoying at the time but worked well.

I am not a yeller....more of a quiet boiling type..but at my granddaughters 2nd birthday party I lost it and screamed! I mean screamed at my DIL, her parents and all her relatives.....they all but left my son and I out of the singing happy birthday etc....suddenly I heard myself screaming...She's got more then one parent...then I yelled at all her relatives standing in front of me so I coudlnt' even see her with her cake (which I bought mind you)..they parted like the red sea and everyone tiptoed around me after that....shocked myself even! LOL

I am a yeller. Especially when it comes to my kids. I know some people say you should not yell at your kids, but that talking to them nicely/sternly stuff does not work with my kids. Sometimes the only way to get them to hear you is to yell at them. Although some days even yelling does not work. My daughter has really gotten into this bull headed attitude lately and it is driving me nuts. She thinks she gets to do what she wants when she wants and if she does not get her own way she SCREAMS about it. Wanna borrow a 3 year old? 10 year old maybe? He makes her little attitude worse.

I yell plenty. My MIL says it's a Mothers perogative! I'm normally not much of a yeller but boy when those kids get under your skin and don't listen one hasn't much choice of ways to get their attention.

hi ambiepam I used be be when I lost my temper but I matured after being married awhile.How can you yell at a man who is always smiling, laughing, full of fun as he always made me laugh too. But about a month ago my son came to see me and we had a nice visit but he had to get back to his apartment at a certain time. I went in the dining room for dinner call and myson rushed back in as he had forgotten his sun glasses which were in my room by my computer. I gave him my keys so he could retrieve his sun glasses and the pesky Glen Mayberry started yelling at my son, You cannot run in here, Get out. You do not belong here." My son didnt pay any attention as he had only a few minutes to get the glasses but I got up out of my seat, and I am really shy, I yelled at Glen,"Mind your own business and just shut up" the whole room went silent as I guesses nobody had ever stopped Glen before of being the obnoxious jerk he was. I felt really embarrassed but also I had actually shut that obnoxious little man up for awhile. Oh I cannot say I never yelled but not very often.

Even a timid rabbit will turn and fight if cornered so I'm sure that every human being has or will yell sometime in their life. It takes a LOT to make me yell. I don't like the way it makes my face look. All scrunched up and weird. I also don't like what it does to my blood pressure! I've always been one to believe that yelling normally accomplishes nothing. It tends to turn people out. They don't want to be the recipient of yelling so they will mentally turn the yeller off. In my opinion, much more is said by keeping your mouth shut sometimes. When my kids were young, all I had to do was to speak a few well-chosen words to my kids and they would do what I wanted (e.g., when they were teenagers and I wanted them to clean their rooms, all I had to say was "Clean your room or you lose your door." They wanted their privacy so they would clean their rooms, in a hurry. LOL). Of course, I yelled a few times, I'm human. Sometimes, anger or fear or utter frustration just gets the better of us, but I have learned that much more is accomplished by firm words than by yelling.

Earlier I used to yell when I loose my temper. But I know it is not a good one.. So I try my best to control myself when I feel like loosing my temper.

HaHa, I can't even imagine anyone who has never yelled at someone or something in their lifetime. I'm actually sort of a quiet person and also talk quietly, BUT, I have a hot temper. So, I was laughing when you said that within 3 seconds you went from calm to yelling because that does sound like me. I really don't put up with too much but have more control now that I'm older. I don't yell over petty things, it's not worth my time. The more severe stuff, yes, I will yell and I can get pretty loud. And I do not like anyone yelling at me especially.

I'm not a yeller anymore but I used to be. When I was younger and had two small children to raise on my own, I flipped out a lot. My son was 12 years old and my daughter was 4 years old when I divorced and so my 12 year old had to help me a lot with my 4 year old and when things didn't get done like they were supposed to, I would yell. I grew out of this stage as my kids grew older and I guess as I grew older too. I learned that sweating the small stuff and yelling didn't get me anywhere and I quickly learned that if I asked nicely and not demanded or yelled after if it didn;t get done, it usually got done and if it didn't, so what. Now I am 53 years old and my 27 year old daughter and I share an apartment together and I never yell. Neither does she as she learned also when she was younger, with me, that it wasn't worth it to get mad.

Hey Ambie. Chill! Lol. I yell but quite very, very seldom.And you're right, it doesn't feel good when you yell at someone especially if it's out anger and not out of excitement or joy or happiness or any positive feeling. When my young siblings get so annoying, I sometimes yell at them. It's just so confusing why people have to yell for them to listen. But, well, kids are kids!

I have yelled. I found it very ineffective. So I decided to not be a yeller. I would tell my kids something one time then they got punished! When I taught school I never yelled either. Actually, when I got really upset, I would whisper. It got the student's attention much faster than yelling did. I found it much more effective!

hi Ambie! i have to do so all the time.yelling to my niece and my nephews.Otherwise they will ignore everything i asked them to do.they even say that they love to hear me yelling them everyday!honestly if i've got a chance i wont yell to them but i just cant do so as they always make me in anger.sometimes to make it more interesting and enjoyable we yell and laugh together at the same time.

I do yell when I'm angry, but it's seldom. Also, I know a girl who yells when she talks, and she doesn't even notice.
