In the header, I declare my 

```
NSString *name;

```

Variable. Then I make it a property with

```
@property (nonatomic,retain) NSString *name;

```

And I synthesize it in the implementation

```
@synthesize name;

```

And, immediately, give it a value in the init method:

```
name = @"HELLO";

```

Later I add a child to my scene. This child, later, will try to access this property. It goes like

```
Battle *battleScene = (Battle*)self.parent;
NSLog(@"%@",battleScene.name);

```

But I get "null". Why is that?
