plural possessive question

[Whatthe]

OK I look at this sentence.

"The natives, or natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens."

This is plural natives plural parents. If it is applied to one native does it mean both parents must be citizens or would it say parents' plural possessive if it meant that?

I am afraid the sentence is wrong in definition and in grammar.

Grammatically, you could correct it thus: "The natives, or natural born citizens, are those born in a country of which their parents are also citizens."
However, the definition would be incorrect as I understand it.

For a generic definition, I'd prefer, for example, "A native is one born in or connected with a place by birth", without using a plural noun with the.
