The role of parents/the role of parents'

Hello,

Can you please tell me whether I should apply the rule of duble genetive in this sentence? Should it be the role of parents* or *the role of parents's What is the difference between these two?

"The role of parents in bringing up their children as responsible citizens can't be overestimated."

Thank you
