As you know, SİZ is used to address 2nd singular(SEN) if the receiver has higher statue than you. in Age or in rank etc. or just to show your respect to anybody who is not a close friend etc of you.
check these examples.
Senin annen. Subject - 2nd singular / object singular.
Sizin anneniz. Subject - 2nd singular or 2nd plural. / object singular
Sizin anneleriniz Subject - 2nd plural. / object plural
Tell your mom to come.
--> Annene gelmesini söyle.
---> Annenize gelmesini söyleyin(iz).
Tell your moms to come. --> Annelerinize gelmesini söyleyin(iz).
