Friendly Shouting

[poliphilo]

Is it possible to shout in a friendly manner? People manage it in books but I'm not sure it can be done in real life. I shout a lot at my mother because of her deafness and I don't mean it to sound cross but it always does.

My shouting sounds cross to me but my mother never takes offence so perhaps she doesn't experience it that way.
