Explanation:
The noun in question is 'parents'. Since there is nothing in the sentence that mentions only one parent, we take it to be 'parents' in general.
The possessive form of a noun is made using an 's. When the noun is plural and it ends with an s, then the possessive noun is made using just an apostrophe '.
Option B: The possessive form of the noun 'parents' is made using an ' : parents'. Hence option B is correct.
Option A: The noun 'parents' is not in the possessive case.
Option C: 'Parent' in 'parent's' is a singular noun, whereas the noun in the sentence is plural.
Option D: Parents's is not the right form because we don't put an s after an apostrophe ' in plural nouns.
Hence options A, C and D are incorrect.
