+/**
+ * @mainpage SG_ParentRelation   
+
+ * @section 
+ * 
+ * This is an abstract interface class to the Scene Graph library. 
+ * It allows you to specify how child nodes react to parent nodes.
+ * Normally a child will use it's parent's transforms to compute
+ * it's own global transforms. How this is performed depends on
+ * the type of relation. For example if the parent is a vertex 
+ * parent to this child then the child should not inherit any 
+ * rotation information from the parent. Or if the parent is a
+ * 'slow parent' to this child then the child should react 
+ * slowly to changes in the parent's position. The exact relation
+ * is left for you to implement by filling out this interface 
+ * with concrete examples. 
+ * 
+ * There is exactly one SG_ParentRelation per SG_Node. Subclasses
+ * should not be value types and should be allocated on the heap.
