I find this whole topic to be bogus but fun to read. But your point, It doesn’t say both of his parents have to be, it just says “children of citizens.”

Citizens is plural, as in both mother and father. It does not read, child or children of a citizen, singular.

Your child and my child are “chidren of citizens”...that’s plural too.

This is becoming laughable. Are you saying that if an American citizen had a child and the father or mother was unknown, the child wouldn’t be a citizen because it fails your “plurality” clause? lol
