I’m sitting here wondering how my toddler niece can cry this loud day after day, while if I sing along to a concert for 2 hours my voice gets strained for a couple of days.

Here’s a different but related question: how do people do things like screamo without damaging there vocal cords? There is a way to scream safely, but as adults, we have to learn it and be trained to do it. As children, we know how to do it because it’s in biology.
I wouldn’t say social inhibition is entirely a complete answer from my knowledge. Due to the fact that you have no need to scream or cry often, you forget how to scream- this much is true. But just because social factors are gone doesn’t mean you’ll suddenly be able to scream like a baby. Your actual procedural memory would have faded because you don’t do it frequently enough. Even a genuine scream out of pure fear would probably hurt your vocal cords if you aren’t trained to scream correctly.
