You need only one READ EVENTS per application to tell VFP to stop and react to user input. So you don't need another READ EVENTS in your parent form when calling the child form.

If you have an exit button on the child form, the child form should close itself and send back the exit command to the parent form. The parent form will then close itself down and issue it's CLEAR EVENTS.
