Answer 2

Answer: Were

Either the boys or their parents were telling lies to the principal

Whenever there is "either" in the sentence, then keep in mind that the verb we use will be in plural form, in this case there was "either" in the sentence so we used the plural form which is were. Just in case you didn't know, was is singular and the plural form of was is were (i'm extremely sorry if you already knew it)

I hope this answer will clear your doubt  ^-^
