Its really simple to find things like this if you use
"console.dir($('parent-el')) this will list all the actions that are
available to you.
Said that, some of the available actions are only available in FF, thus when
you first select one test it in IE as well.
To get the first child you have many options: (two of which are)
getFirst
firstChild
I am not sure if both work in other browsers, you can also use:
var _a = $('ul').getChildren() ;
_a[0] - for the first child.
