Either option #1 or option #2, I say. You do need mom/dad on board here. Children use the tonality, etc that they learn will work. He has already learned that that specific "angry" voice gets mom and dad to listen.
On the plus side, this means that he can/will learn that it no longer works.
I have to say, screaming and shrieking is one thing that makes me pull my hair out!! Because really, what do you do? You cannot MAKE them stop if they are in that mood. The best we can do is consistently make it known that it is NOT okay, and if it comes right down to it, remove them from the situation.
