The definitions are a bit looser.

A parallelogram is a shape in which the two pairs of opposite sides are parallel to each other. By definition, all rhombuses are parallelograms.

A kite is defined as a shape in which two adjacent sides are equal length to each other, and the opposite two adjacent sides are equal length to each other. If all four sides are the same length, then the kite is ALSO a rhombus (and a parellelogram by definition) or a square if the angles are equal too. Because of that, some rhombuses are kites, or diamond, even if other kite-shapes are not parallelograms and some rhombuses are not kites.
