- They model and encourage good relationships.
- They praise their children the right way.
- They encourage them to do scut work.
- They ensure their kids know they will always support them.
- They help them to become resilient.
- They advocate for them at school.
- They remind them (ahem) of their high expectations for them.
- They hope that they marry the right person.
