Using the inbuilt event dispatching system is your best bet.
That way you can have your parent(s) and child(s) loosely coupled.
There are particular design patterns that also deal with this issue.
Personally i like the combination of DataBinding, ModelLocator
(Singleton) and Commands, ala Cairngorm :)

Hi everyone,
Currently I have to write a Flex application that holds other swf
application within it (I will have a skeleton swf movie with menu on
the left hand side and when a menu item is clicked, the corresponding
sub application is loaded on the right hand side, onto an Image
control).
The problem is that how can we propagate information from the child
movie to the parent movie and vice versa? Say the sub movie does the
login procedure and return the authentication information, how can I
pass this information to the parent movie so that it can be used to
control the access given to this particular user?
