Okay I know what parent means it's what a certain object is in. But ie. you have a part in Workspace, then you so part.Parent.Parent then which is the game right? If that is true then if you have a part and want to move it using parents then how?

Think of this:

A leaf, is a child of a twig on a tree.

That twig, is a member of a stick, on that tree.

That stick, is a member of a branch, on that tree.

That branch, is a member of that tree.

Think of it like that, and it's as easy as pi.

The best way to explain it is to have a visual. Use ROBLOX Studio's explorer and properties window. Look at the property "Parent" as you click different objects in the explorer windows.
