I need an intro to GD audiobook

[angie3096]

DH is not a reader but he has agreed to listen to a parenting audio CD during his commute. I have so many GD books that I love; it is hard to pick one! The Becky Bailey book is my all time fave but wouldn't you know, that one is not available as an audiobook. His primary parenting issue is saying "Why can't you ever mind/pick up your toys/be quiet/be a good girl" and I'm trying to get him to see how harmful that type of language is to a kids' self esteem and give him some alternatives. Thanks!

My top 2 choices:
How to Talk so Children will Listen - that would be my first choice because it will address the language issue ASAP.
Connection Parenting

Jane Nelson (author of Positive Discipline) has 2. She's not the favorite of some people here, but she's a good intro to people who are new to the whole idea:
Positive Discipline
Building Self-Esteem Through Positive Discipline (disclaimer - I've not read this one)

I was also thinking of How to Talk So Kids Will Listen. And I loved Connection Parenting but I didn't think I could get that as an audiobook because Amazon didn't have it. But I went to their website and, success! I think I'll get both. Thank you!!

Audiobooks sound like a great idea for Dads (especially mine, at least)!
