Wailing - how long do your DCs go on for?

[auntevil]

Keep hoping that it's in part due to tiredness at the end of a week at school, and then he'll wail himself to sleep. Even DS2 has asked when it will stop - as its getting annoying. He sounds like he's howling to the moon wolf style - its not a full moon tonight - is it?

DS2 can wail for a good half hour or so. DS1 doesn't wail, but rants and screams and that can last an eternity.

Oh he does that as well - but strangely, anger meltdowns are not so harsh on the ear. This is real howling like a dog - in fact even the dog looked at me as if to say wtf. I suppose that is another one of his talents - he can out dog the dog!

mine does that too drives the others mad but ive got used to it for some reason i can still hold a conversation and watch a programme but everyone else in the house gets annoyed i think thats a mum thing Dh cant ignore screaming dc's or babies in a supermarket but im immmune lol

Ds tends to yell, rant and bang these days, it can last hours, it has been known to last into days ( including not sleeping)

when he was younger he could wail for hours litterally hours

dd3 is pretty good at this when tired, like mad I'm now immune and can have all sorts of important meetings while not losing my train of thought with it all going on in the background. I count it as one of my skills now May be he's wailing in sympathy for me, I reckon it'd make me feel a whole heap better right now, but will stick with the gin!

we get screeching like a LOUD PARROT. As far as I can tell, it is indefinite, though she will pause to draw breath and eat and drink and eventually she will become so tired she keels over - though not necessarily the same night.
