+You can also get the parent from a child:
+
+```json
+{
+    "children": {
+        "node": {
+            "example-node":{
+                "parent": {
+                    "attributes":{
+                        ...
+                    }
+                }
+            }
+        }
+    }
+}

 Within MenuLayer, we can see there is a menu, the main menu, which has three buttons. Any or all of these buttons can be modified within that MenuLayer.json file. We would first want to get the main menu by grabbing the children of the MenuLayer, and finding the `"main-menu"` ID:
 
 ```json
 {
     "children": {
         "node": {
             "main-menu":{
-
+                ...
             }
         }
     }
