LOL. My house too - except I'm the Mom. And I'm the quiet one. Finally I told my kids "Look, whoever wants something has to go to the floor that the other person is on and just say it in a normal voice". I'm thoroughly expecting I may have to repeat this a few times before it becomes habit for all of us. Other than that, for fighting or other generally aggravating loudness, earplugs work quite well. I just tell everybody I've got them in so they don't get pissed off when I don't hear them
