If you want to use parent constructors when instanciating your child class,
you need to implement the 3 constructors in your child class and call parent
constructor from it;

public class Parent
  public sub New()
    MyBase.New
    ...
  end sub

  public sub New(i as integer)
     MyBase.New(i)
     ...
  end sub

  public sub New(i as integer, s as string)
     MyBase.New(i, s)
     ...
  end sub

  ...
 end class

Note that when you instantiate a class, you are calling the class
constructors not parent class constructor;
