I have read through the hibernate doc on how the persistence context is stored 
and synchronized several times, but cannot find an answer.  The main question 
is this:

Can I persist a parent and its list of children in the same method?

i.e.


  | public void persistParent(Parent p)
  | {
  |    ParentEntityBean pBean = new ParentEntityBean(p);
  |    em.persist(pBean);
  |    
  |    List<Child> children = p.getChildren();
  |    Child firstChild = children.get(0);
  |    ChildEntityBean cBean = new ChildEntityBean(firstChild);
  |    em.persist(cBean);
  | 
  |    ParentChildRelationEntityBean pcRelBean = new 
ParentChildRelationEntityBean(pBean,cBean);
  |    em.persist(pcRelBean);
  |    
  | }
  | 

I have also tried flushing and refreshing (as talked about in the Hibernate 
EntityManager docs).

i.e.

  | public void persistParent(Parent p)
  | {
  |    ...
  |    em.persist(pBean);
  |    em.flush();
  |    em.refresh(pBean);
  | 
  |    ...
  |    em.persist(cBean);
  |    em.flush();
  |    em.refresh(cBean);
  | 
  |    ...
  |    em.persist(pcRelBean);
  | }
  | 

Finally, I've tried using my own transaction:


  | public void persistParent(Parent p)
  | {
  |    EntityManagerFactory emf = 
Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory("mysqlUnit",new HashMap());
  |    EntityManager em = emf.createEntityManager();
  |    ...
  |    EntityTransaction t1 = em.getTransaction();
  |    t1.begin();
  |    em.persist(pBean);
  |    t1.commit();
  | 
  |    ...
  |    EntityTransaction t2 = em.getTransaction();
  |    t2.begin();
  |    em.persist(cBean);
  |    t2.commit();
  | 
  |    ...
  |    em.persist(pcRelBean);
  | }
  | 

If you can help me solve this problem, I would be eternally grateful.   I admit 
I'm new new Hibernate, and maybe this is a trivial question, but I would really 
appreciate any time that you have into figuring this out.

Thanks in advance!
