Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

The active sentence is an interrogative with a modal: 'Should we not obey our parents?' Its passive must remain a negative question: 'Should our parents not be obeyed by us?' (B). (A) and (C) change the sentence type to assertive, and (D) adds an incorrect 'to'. So only (B) is correct.
