About this listen

Kids, a Primer is a collection of a grandfather's musings on the way his (now grown) children are raising their children and being glad about being a grandparent rather than a new parent with young children (again). While Ungar is convinced that grandparents could do a better job raising children if they had the energy, he is grateful that he, in fact, no longer has the energy. Readers will enjoy Ungar's signature sarcastic and witty tone but will be left with a warm sense of gratitude for parents and children alike by the end.

"We're told not to yell at children because it might affect their self-esteem... PLEEEEEAAASE!... Is there really much chance of affecting these little engines of ego?"

...Well, speaking of someone whose self esteem was utterly destroyed by the constant yelling beratement of his mother and who still lives in fear of a woman being mad at him at the age of 47, yes! Yes there is! And this wilfully ignorant and self-righteous sack of fertiliser is the last person who you should listen to on the subject!
