Answer:
Explanation:
How are Mom and Dad” would be correct. Mom and Dad are two people, are being the plural present tense of “is”, so you would say that. However, because Mom and Dad in this sentence are two specific people, the words “Mom and Dad” are then proper nouns and thus should be capitalized. Now if you were asking someone “how are the mom and dad?” you wouldn’t capitalize it because the subjects in question, the mom and dad, aren’t names that could be replaced by the subjects’ names (such as “how are Lucy and Ricky?”). By adding that the, you’re specifying that the mom and dad are adjectives in relation to the mom and dad’s relation to another person. Generally speaking, in this context you would simply say “how are Mom and Dad”.
