Birthright citizenship is a pretty outdated idea. Most countries don't have this and require at least one parent to be a citizen.
Again, "birthright citizenship" refers to any citizenship acquired at birth, whether by birthplace (jus soli) or by parentage (jus sanguinis).
What people in this thread actually mean when they talk about abolishing birthright citizenship is restricting or abolishing jus soli.
