Your friend is correct per se, as far as strict etiquette goes, but I htink we have to take some things into consideration.
Say your adult child lives elsewhere and is in the wedding of a colleague. You have never met the colleague, and your chilld is an adult. I don't think in that circumstances that an attendants parents need to be invited.
I htink this may be one of those leftovers form the 50's, when people got married younger, and everyone knew everyone's parents.
Most of the people who were in my wedding party had their parents there, but that was because they were people we were close to in their own right. No one's poarents got invited because they were So-and-So's parents.
