Rules around a DisplayObjectContainer's addChild:

I have a DisplayObjectContainer that has a property of a datatype that has a
property named prettyThing which is an Image

myDisplayObjectContainer{

private var class:Class;
private var url:String = "someImage.jpg";

public function createClass():void
{
class = new Class();
class.prettyThing = new Image();
class.prettyThing.load(); //load a url and such
}

public function addPrettyThing():void
{
addChild( class.prettyThing );
}

}

addPrettyThing will not take the Image that is a property of class and
display it.  What is the rule here?  If prettyThing were a property of
myDisplayObjectContainer then it coud be added to the dispplaylist and
displayed?

Does anyone know what the rule is?
