SELECT parents.id AS parent, children.id as child
FROM parentChild parents
INNER JOIN parentChild children
ON children.par_id = parents.id;
Need to add something in there for the NULL par_id's, but
good enough to get the wheels turning maybe ...
mysql> select * from parentChild;
+----+--------+-----------+
| id | par_id | comment |
+----+--------+-----------+
| 1 | NULL | blah blah |
| 2 | 1 | blah blah |
| 3 | 2 | blah blah |
| 4 | 1 | blah blah |
| 5 | 4 | blah blah |
| 6 | 5 | blah blah |
| 7 | 6 | blah blah |
| 8 | NULL | blah blah |
| 9 | 8 | blah blah |
| 10 | 9 | blah blah |
+----+--------+-----------+
mysql> SELECT parents.id AS parent, children.id as child
-> FROM parentChild parents
-> INNER JOIN parentChild children
