I remember having this list when I was a therapist, but I can't find it. The list had things like "don't bring up the past" and "don't name-call".

You want to avoid fallacies.
Doing a google search for "fallacies" will bring you several lists of them.

The list has been revised.
1) Don't argue.
2) I you can't avoid an argument, win.
3) If you win the argument it probably means you have lost a lot of other things in the process, so....
4) Defer to 1 before going to 2.

Well. Use logic/Reason. Don't Yell. Listen to the other. Don't stop someone while they're talking. I'd say have the last word, but you wouldn't, because it'll only lead to more yelling and more arguments.
yahooed it, found a book:
A Rulebook for Arguments (Paperback)

keep the issue in mind...
no name calling...
no hitting below the belt...
no physical hitting...
Don't bring the past back...
look at the person...
Those I remembered... I can't remember the other ones...
