If you use MFA, you can only have one parent site, but the parent site can have an unlimited number
of child sites. The link between a parent site and a child site is established, when you request the link
from the parent site. If you are not the administrator of the child site, the request must be accepted by
the child site administrator. A parent site includes information about all of its child sites and the child
sites' child sites, but only controls them one level down. Similarly, a child site only knows about and
answers to its parent site one level up. Your home site is the parent site you are logged in to.
