Where did all the parents go?

I recently rewatched the Sex and the City (SATC) episode where Charlotte gets hitched the first time. Funniest Charlottism ever is 'your C U next Tuesday'. Funniest narrator line was "Charlotte had something old, something new, something borrowed, someone that Samantha blew!" That TV programme is so great for making you feel so good. Anyway this was the first time it hit me, with random guy taking Charlotte down the aisle, that none of these women have parents - not even a mention of them - no visiting them - nada. Sure you have other people's parents and families but never theirs. Or did I miss something? That's weird isn't it? Or is it weird I never noticed until now and took it as nothing unusual.

I stand corrected. Philip, official MasterMind subject SATC, said Miranda has her mum die in the series.

Still I think it very odd that parents are so non-existant.
