Spoilers: Star Wars: The Last Jedi
knnn:
Nononono, Time travelling Rey is her own mother (maybe with Ben Solo as the father each time). That explains the weird infinite mirror sequence that otherwise did absolutely nothing for the story.
It also explains her amazing power -- she's building up her "genetic midicholrians" in an infinite loop until she's powerful enough to stop time itself. Oh, and "bring balance to the universe" whatever that means.
See, I can write plots to Star Wars movies too. :P

Ohh, I think my 5 year old son could write a Star Wars plot that equals the quality of TLJ. :P
knnn:
I've always thought this one was pretty good:

(I could never be one of the extras in the background. I'd be grinning ear to ear the whole time).

I actually had he same thought during he movie about Holding and Skywalker being Rey's parents and Luke not knowing. I think Holdo would have returned for Rey by now if Holdo knew Rey was on Jaku, which means Holdo must have hired someone to take Rey to safety and that person didn't return, so Holdo thinks her daughter is dead.
I hate the theory after what Holdo did, though. Either Holdo is dead and Rey didn't get a reunion, or Holdo isn't dead, which defies belief. I suspect the latter, because the new movies have had ridiculous power creep in the things that untrained novices accomplish (including both Leia and Rey) as well as the general power level of what is possible (Kylo is more powerful than Vader, Snoak than Palpatine, and dead Yoda can cause lightning strikes).
I wish it were true that Rey's parents were schoolbags and this is a maturation story that great people can ride above a disadvantaged past, but I think this will be a story of a certain bloodline (Skywalker) having special destinies.
Fear, hate and anger lead to the dark side. Rey's fear is that she isn't special and that her parents didn't love her. Kylo uses the classic dark side tactic of playing on that fear to try to convert it to hate and anger (see Vader using Luke's fear that his friends will die as lure in Empire and Palpatine the same in RotJ). Kylo told her what he thought would benefit him, not what he actually saw.

I think there is a statement that Kylo didn't lie but that doesn't mean that he knows the whole truth either.
