New research suggests that shouting at children may cause long-term damage, as adults are often unaware of how their tone and criticizing words can negatively impact children. However, some parents argue that shouting is a necessary and effective form of discipline, teaching respect and toughness. They believe that wrapping children in cotton wool is more harmful than raising one's voice. Alternatives to shouting include positive reinforcement, teamwork, effective communication, understanding the child's needs, letting go of ego, watching one's words, avoiding threats, and being patient.
