It depends on whether you are simply using the plural noun (no apostrophe) or forming a possessive (with an apostrophe). Examples:
- The school sent a letter to all parents. [Plural noun. No apostrophe.]
- We found a parent's cellphone after the meeting. ["Parent" is singular, so the apostrophe, making it a possessive, goes before the 's'.]
- The police came to his parents' home on Monday. ["Parents" is plural, so the apostrophe, making it a possessive, goes after the 's'.]
