I never had a parent in my life, I was put up for adoption but they called me ugly so I lived on the street for the entirety of my life. I tried self.Parent:BurnInHell() but it said something about self not being defined? Does that mean I need to learn the true meaning about myself so I can understand the true meaning of life?

help plz

:remove() is deprecated, use MyDominus.Parent = nil or MyDominus:Destroy()

@myDominus Parent is the parent of the object. For example if a part is in the workspace that means that the part's parent is workspace.

The explorer and game function a Parent-Child basis

if you put a Part inside a Model, the Model is the Parent of Part and Part is the Child of Model.

Anything that is considered to be part of another object (like a Part that is inside of 4 stacked Models) Is a descendant of the first, meaning anything directly in the Workspace is a Descendant of Game and a Child of the Workspace.

The reverse works for Ancestor, the Workspace would be the Ancestor of a Part whos Parent is in the Workspace.

[({ a } b ) c ]

A = Descendant of C and child of B
B = Parent of A and Child of C
C = Parent of B and Ancestor of A
