Getting parent MC properties, named by XML attribute

I’ve created an amount of MC based on my XMLlist, and each assign with an attribute/ID stated in the XML. I’m now trying to trace back the parent of the assigned MC properties, how could I do that?

private function members();:void {

            xmlList=myXML.children();

            var trunksX=trunks.x;
            var trunksY=trunks.y;

            for each (myXML in xmlList) {

                createCircles();
                addChild(circles)

                circles.x= (Math.floor(Math.random()*100)-50);
                circles.y= (Math.floor(Math.random()*100));

                circles.name=myXML.attribute("ID");


                members();

            }
        }

        private function clickTarget(event:MouseEvent):void {
             //trace(event.target.name);
                //trace(event.target.parent().attribute("ID"));
//trying to trace previous assgined att MC position
