+<p> <a href="qobject.html">TQObjects</a> organize themselves in object trees.
+When you create a <a href="qobject.html">TQObject</a> with another object as parent, it's added to
+the parent's <a href="qobject.html#children">children()</a> list, and
+is deleted when the parent is. It turns out that this approach fits
+the needs of GUI objects very well. For example, a <a href="qaccel.html">TQAccel</a> (keyboard
+accelerator) is a child of the relevant window, so when the user closes
+that window, the accelerator is deleted too.
+<p> The static function <a href="qobject.html#objectTrees">TQObject::objectTrees</a>() provides access to all
+the root objects that currently exist.
+<p> <a href="qwidget.html">TQWidget</a>, the base class of everything that appears on the screen,
+extends the parent-child relationship. A child normally also becomes a
+child widget, i.e. it is displayed in its parent's coordinate system
+and is graphically clipped by its parent's boundaries. For example,
+when the an application deletes a message box after it has been
+closed, the message box's buttons and label are also deleted, just as
+we'd want, because the buttons and label are children of the message
+box.
+<p> You can also delete child objects yourself, and they will remove
+themselves from their parents. For example, when the user removes a
+toolbar it may lead to the application deleting one of its <a href="qtoolbar.html">TQToolBar</a>
+objects, in which case the tool bar's <a href="qmainwindow.html">TQMainWindow</a> parent would
+detect the change and reconfigure its screen space accordingly.
+<p> The debugging functions <a href="qobject.html#dumpObjectTree">TQObject::dumpObjectTree</a>() and <a href="qobject.html#dumpObjectInfo">TQObject::dumpObjectInfo</a>() are often useful when an application looks or
+acts strangely.
