1. What was your parents' dream?
Mother wanted to be a nurse, and Father wanted to be an architect.

2. What were our parents' dreams?
Mother wanted to be a nurse, and Father wanted to be an architect.

(Which question is corect? Do we have to use the singular form or the plural form?)

Number 2 is correct.

For number 1, you'd expect your parents' dream to be one they both had together. Your parents' dream may have been to live in a big house or to raise successful and happy children.
