parents

The translations table can stay (or be incorporated into [[parent]]'s), but surely the sense "one's mother and father" is redundant to the sense "plural of parent" to the extent that it isn't simply misleadingly and incorrectly over-specific. (We don't have a sense "one's own mother" at [[mother]] distinct from the sense "human female who parents a child or gives birth to a baby", or a sense "one's uncles" at [[uncles]].) - -sche (discuss) 01:54, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

Delete BTW, "mother and father" doesn't cover all the cases, eg, step-, same-gender parents, let alone one or more transgender parents. DCDuring TALK 02:30, 30 May 2013 (UTC)
