I don't know about in the home but I've had several hearing impaired children in the classroom and they are usually quieter not louder.
One boy - I was required to wear the microphone and they fitted both me and him and he sat right up front near me - he asked me NOT to wear the mic - he could hear me just fine and he did very well in my class. Even came back years later to just say Hi.
But like I said they were usually quieter.
I have encountered children with mild to moderate hearing loss. I would have to say as a general rule they are quieter. Children with damaged hearing tend to have a high frequency loss unless, of course, they have a profound loss in which case a bone conductor "body aide" would be more appropriate.
