Indirect object pronouns replace indirect object nouns.
... and know to understand that...

• ex: Gisèle parle à sa mère. > Gisèle lui parle.
• Gisèle speaks to her mother. > Gisèle speaks to her.
• J'envoie de cadeaux à mes nièces. > Je leur envoie des cadeaux
• I send gifts to my nieces > I send them gifts.

The indirect object pronoun usually precedes the conjugated verb.

• ex: Antoine, je te parle. Antoine, I'm speaking to you
• *a way to restate it maybe.. Antoine, I -to you- am speaking or think about recognizing the pronoun form and be able to skip it almost and put it in the end..
• Notre père nous a envoyè un poème. Our father sent us a poem.

To make negative

• place the indirect object pronoun between ne and the conjugated verb
• ne - indirect object proundoun - conjugated verb.
  
• ex: Antoine, je ne te parle. Antoine, I'm not speaking to you
•
