How to use parents in a sentence?

  1. Richard Malley:

    There are things parents can do that they couldn't do a year ago. One of them is to make sure that everybody in the entourage of a child who's eligible for vaccination or for boosting get that vaccination or boosting, also, maintain the same sort of preference for outdoor activities over indoor activities, and be careful that masks be worn whenever they're indoors. Those things, I think, need to be re-emphasized.

  2. Philip Roth:

    A Jewish man with parents alive is a fifteen-year-old boy, and will remain a fifteen-year-old boy until they die!

  3. Cassidy Williams:

    I tricked my parents into adopting him, i knew they would end up falling in love with him.

  4. Chad Griffin:

    It also flies in the face of overwhelming evidence that children being raised by same-sex parents are just as healthy and well-adjusted as those with different-sex parents. At a time when so many children in foster care need loving homes, it is sickening to think that a child would be taken from caring parents who planned to adopt.

  5. Tony Hale in Veep '':

    It's really a story about repression and in the end, I see it as redemption, the father choosing love over his own judgments... What most parents should do is choose love and that's what happens in this movie.
