Introvert parent, extrovert children.

[An0nym0u3]

Help me, I'm exhausted. 2 out of 3 of my dc are incredibly outgoing and very loud. I adore them but I can't handle the constant noise and talking. I just need to retreat to a quiet place and recharge. Went out for dinner this evening and youngest dc was so wild and lapping up the attention from everyone and anyone. She speaks so loudly too. Dh is quiet, just assumed our children would follow suit. Can anyone relate, any tips?

I can sooooo relate. But, let's get this in quickly, I have no answers. I'm not shy. I am an introvert. Different. My batteries recharge in my own company. I like to process things before I talk about them. I like a little company but 10/90 against being on my own. Sorry I have no answers. I love my kids but I struggle with the "stuff".

Same here. Me and my husband are fairly quiet. Not shy as such but just not really loud and chatty. Also enjoy time on our own. Our 3 year old never shuts up, sings all the time and is loud. She is hard work as she doesn't like been on her own and tells us that a lot, she doesn't really like sleeping on her own either. Don't think there is a lot you can do! I am also surprised how we have such a chatty daughter. She is great though and very funny.
