TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Personally, it sounds like you're mixing programming and interface concepts.
Programmer's should easily understand terms like parent/child and object
(although glossaries still make sense). However, your description makes me
think that you're talking about interface items a user might click. I would
suggest you use the name of the interface item and write in terms of the
action a user takes to create these relationships.
