Amazing insights into myself!

I highly recommend this book to anyone that is a first born child or ever has to interact with a first born child. That's pretty much everyone. This book discusses how firstborns think internally, see the world, and interact with others at home and at work. It also discusses why we are the way we are and how life can instill some of these characteristics in middle born and last born children as well. I did find some useful advice for both home and work but many of the suggestions I had already figured out in my nearly 50 years on this planet. About 80% of the insights were true of me and I can see them in other firstborns I know including my son and grandson.

Condescending

I'm surprised that for someone who claims to understand birth order, he would write a book so condescending. This surmount to a lot of lecturing on behavior and parenting. Really do not recommend.

It's a summary!

This audiobook is a summary of the original book. The narrator reads one or two sentences out of each paragraph!
