There,
their and they're are homophones - this means they sound the same even
though they have different spellings and different meanings.
'There' means 'in or to that place', for example:
Your mother is standing over there.
We drove there and back in under an hour.
We also use it with 'is' and 'are' to show that something exists or happens, for example:
There is someone at the door. (= there's someone at the door.)
There are tech dances every term at college.
'Their' means something belongs to them. For example:
This is their house.
Their children are really awful.
That red car is theirs.
'They're' is just a shortened way of writing 'they are', for example:
They're arriving at midnight.
I hope they're happy now.
