Near the bottom of the page:

Better grammar would be “For Parents” without the apostrophe.

I guess that would make the “Parent’s Guide” wrong too, right? Shouldn’t it be “Parents’ Guide”? (I can’t quite remember the rule on that)

Yes because you’re referring to more than one parent so you would put an apostrophe at the end as you demonstrated.

I think “Parent’s Guide” here is correct, actually: it assumes the article “A”, as in “A Parent’s Guide”. Though every human (so far?) on Earth has two biological parents, only one would be reading the guide in the moment. That, and not everyone still has two parents, but that’s purely technical.

I agree that “For Parent’s” is definitely wrong, since it’s using a possessive apostrophe. I’ve made a ticket for that.
