Something that has become very obvious to me lately is that both my kids struggle with reading "tone of voice". difficult child 1 struggles a lot more than difficult child 2 but at times even he has a problem. They hear the words but the meaning of the tone it is said in is lost on them. difficult child 1 can't tell when I'm getting angry by my facial expressions OR the change in my tone of voice. He only seems to hear the words. It also happens when he says something in an "I have an attitude" tone of voice and then gets upset when I interpret it as him having an attitude and when I try to point it out to him he raises his voice even more and says "I do NOT have an attitude!!"
Does anyone have any ideas on how to teach this and/or resources that might help? It is really causing increasing communication issues in our house.
