2. Give lots of “undivided” listening attention to your child.
3. Follow your child’s “lead” (vs. directing your child).
5. Nurture yourself (so that you’re fortified to give to your child).
6. Examine your own behavior as closely and honestly as you do your child’s.
(Dr. Fran Walfish, Early Childhood Parenting Center)

Tip #4 is especially important for parents who have gone their separate ways and established separate households.
