>How about some minimal coaching so that all parents are aware of the state of the art in child psychology

What is "state of the art" in psychology? A bunch of irreproducible papers?

Yes exactly that. Appeal to authority.

Many people have such broken relationships with their parents that they refuse to believe their parents can offer them good advice.

Before they take a parenting class, they might be better served taking a counseling class to repair their relationship with their own parents.
