Well, Wikipedia claims they are children of Horus the elder (Isis' brother) and that Isis (Horus' original consort) is their mother, but they are also regarded as children of the younger Horus and, as such, they would also be children of Hathor.

Wikipedia also says they may be children of Osiris, and Egyptian mythology is very complex in that there are often regional variations in the pantheon; they do not even agree on a creator god, with various deities such as Ptah and Khnum viewed regionally as the head of the Egyptian pantheon.
