WE basketball players have a hard time finding boys tall enough to dance with. - "We" is the subject (we have a hard time) - you would not say "us have a hard time"

Our grandfather knitted sweaters for Lila and HER. "Her" is the object of the preposition "for" - you wouldn't say "for she"

On Sunday morning, many families stop at the diner after THEY have been to church. C The pronoun is "they", which is correct as it stands for the noun "families."

My father's habit of eating about a dozen fried eggs a week is bad for YOU. PE The pronoun should be "HIM" to agree with the noun "father."
