iPhone 12 Not Receiving and Not Sending SMS Messages

Has anyone else had the problem of their SMS messages not sending? I can only send iMessages and not regular ones and I do not know why! I am also not receiving them. My parents do not have iPhones and I stay in contact with them almost every day. If anyone knows what I can do to fix this please let me know!

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 14
