Hormones cause a boy’s voice box to grow and move lower in his throat during puberty. While this is happening their voice might be squeaky one minute and low the next. This is often referred to as someone’s voice breaking. It doesn’t hurt, but it can make a child feel self-conscious or embarrassed.
