Hey everyone,

im still pretty new to maya and I was wonder how I can access child and parent nodes via mel script,

for example if I have pSphere and a rigidbody node under it it would like like this in my outliner:

pSphere1
-pSphereShape1
-rigidBody2

if my pSphere is generated by a script, how can I access the child nodes?
