I want to be sealed to my parents
Family search temple ordinances option will not allow me to do this. My parents have been deceased for several years and I have been baptised. How do I print a sealing request for my self?

Welcome to the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum.

FYI
Short Answer:
You CAN be "Sealed to [Your, Deceased] Parents"; but, just not, using "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch'.
The reason for such, is that YOU are STILL "Living"; and, "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch', is NOT; and, CANNOT, be used for effecting "Living" 'Ordinances'.
It is simply a matter of, counseling DIRECTLY with, YOUR Local Priesthood Leader (ie. Bishop; or, Branch President), in the first instance.
Here are a couple of "Knowledge Articles" in "FamilySearch':
Policy for sealing living members after a spouse dies
Sealings to deceased family members
https://www.familysearch.org/help/helpcenter/article/sealings-to-deceased-family-members
Furthermore ...
"Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' is used ONLY to, both, "Request"/"Reserve", the "Temple" Work; and, "Print" the "Temple" Cards, for that "Temple" Work", for the undertaking of that "Temple" Work, for ALL "Deceased" individuals/persons; NOT, the "Living".
"Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' is NOT used when "Temple" Work relates to "Living" individuals/persons; even, that of being "Sealed" to one's "Deceased" immediate Family members (eg. Parents; Spouses; and, Children).
If not already done, make sure that ALL the "Temple" Work is "Completed" for your Parents.
Not ONLY, do you need a CURRENT "Temple Recommend", you ALSO "Need", a "Recommend" for (undertaking) "Living" 'Ordinances' from your, Bishop; or, Branch President.
You then need to make, an "Appointment", at the (your local) "Temple", for the "Living" 'Ordinance' (in this case, "Sealing to Parents"); and, at that "Appointment" (ie. "Temple" Visit) taking along all the appropriate "Documentation" (eg, "Temple Recommend"; and, "Recommend" for (undertaking) "Living" 'Ordinances' from your, Bishop; or, Branch President).
I hope this helps.
Good Luck.
Being "Sealed" to your "Parents", WILL be VERY Special indeed.
