All of those are great ideas but unless you require people to take those classes it won’t be helpful. I highly doubt a lot of these parents are going to take weekly therapy classes, let alone enroll their children in one, especially when society as a whole already thinks seeing a therapist is considered “weak”. I also just think parenting classes wouldn’t work. Some people just shouldn’t be parents. I recently saw this billboard running near CVS on Penn and 12 SE that had a picture of a kid scribbling on a wall with the caption “ aren’t ready for children?”. Early sex education and constant lessons about parenthood should be enforced yet are now being attacked. I understand and agree with all that you say but perhaps I’m not optimistic on the invidual responsibility side of things.
