How to use parents in a sentence?

  1. John Updike:

    The founding fathers in their wisdom decided that children were an unnatural strain on parents. So they provided jails called schools, equipped with tortures called education. School is where you go between when your parents can't take you and industry can't take you.

  2. Arch Manning:

    I’m the one going to college, not my parents and not my coaches, no one’s pressuring me to do anything. I mean, I don’t even have to play football in college if I don’t want to. But I want to go play at a good school, and I think every college has something great to offer. I’m not singling out anywhere.

  3. Bryer Schmegelsky:

    Bryer Schmegelsky was Bryer Schmegelsky. I never get to hug Bryer Schmegelsky again. I never get to tease Bryer Schmegelsky again. I never get to spend a minute with Bryer Schmegelsky again, a lot of parents know how I feel right now.

  4. Tyra Bryant-Stephens:

    Parents who are living really stressful lives can't stop what they're doing to take care of that one item, necessarily, so if you have a child who seems to be OK, doesn't have symptoms right then, you may delay that just because of all the other competing priorities.

  5. Nathan Bult:

    They know where their parents are, and their parents are saying,' We're not safe,' and they're trying to escape the Taliban. Between the fear of the unknown, and the fear of what they do know and can do nothing about, it's like a constant adverse childhood experience, my hope and prayer is that all of these children would be able to be reunited with their extended family or their immediate family, but knowing what we know about their histories, there are some children who are never going to reunited with family.
