Gentle Discipline Books Rec's for Dads

[MommaKitten21]

Hey Momma's!! I am in need of some gentle discipline book recommendations for dads!

DH wont read the ones I have because they are geared towards the more "nurturing" parent (mothers)

Are there are GD books written by fathers for fathers?

My DH never wants to read parenting books so I got the "Unconditional Parenting" DVD. It's a presentation by a father, he has a book too but I haven't even read the book yet. I think it's a great DVD for any parent, and especially for ppl who don't like to read. After watching it my DH now realizes what I meant when I always tried to tell him about this kind of parenting, and he has really changed his parenting style.

I second Unconditional Parenting dvd

It's only a couple hours long so it's not such a tough commitment for a dad to make. My husband and I both were very moved by it. It's really good, not dry and boring.

ok, maybe a separate thread, but how do you get dh to read a book??? I know dh would like the books I have, but he won't read any.

When our children were babies, it was easy. I explained ap and he got it right away and there was not much debate....now they're older and we disagree. It's rough.

I'm having problems getting DH to read a book too, so I'm trying the video and audio book approach. Here is a thread I started on this matter.
