    An acquaintance of mine age 27 and she's always doing that little girl act. That kind of voice which we find cute for little girls age below 10 cute bt not for 20 and above. Talking and laughing out loud with that forced voice gives me the creeps. And the reason for doing that? To garner more attention *yuck*

    I had a co-worker who used to do that "baby voice" thing. It was like nails on a chalkboard. A grown ass woman talking like a baby is creepy.

    This is a habit taught at a young age. Perhaps merely because their parents did it when speaking to her or a pet or just frequently.

    If it is a tactic. Then it is a tactic only employed by people who have been taught it works. This will not work for just anyone. An overweight grown man in his forties doing this voice would probably be arrested on general principle for being a creeper.

    Growing up in a family, this person was taught it works on their parents or the like, and has tried to apply it elsewhere. It unfortunately doesn't usually work elsewhere and simply seems upsettingly abnormal.

    This is, either, blatant manipulation or it is, like you said, being an attention whore. The tell-tale clue is whether she does it only when she wants something or just for attention or possibly both. Doing it for attention implies that she at one point had to compete for attention, thus most likely not an only child.

    Either way, it's just an, obvious, if failing ploy.

    everyone has their own little thing about them that makes them who they are. sure she could work on changing herself, but im sure theres those out there that enjoy it and feed into her "attention seeking" as you put it, just because they like that about her. its just her thing

    It does sound kinda annoying - have you ever thought of challenging her about it?:)
     
  10. Call them out on it, sometimes people are not aware of these things because they are conditioned to subconsciously do it. If it bugs you it probably bugs others. Help your friend out, if you can even label yourself as one that is.

    If she uses it often, it's a problem. She needs to grow up, methinks. Imagine when she's 40.

    had a friend like that. she always talked like she was still a little girl, and she always pretended to be sick. people adored her. i thought it was annoying, but i still hung out with her.
    one day, i just stopped talking to her.

    Attention whore is the naked one dancing on the bar while the truly strung out hard core attention whore is in the back booth pulling a train.

    Some of us can't help that we sound like 10 year olds. But good god, why would anyone purposely make themselves sound that way?
