I have found this definition of child windows on a website and thought I
would post it here for everyone to look over.
Child windows are windows that are opened either automatically or as a
result of some user activity when using a parent window. They can range in
functionality
from the very simple to the full complement of controls. Some annoying
pop-up windows that appear when visiting some websites purposely lack
buttons for
closing them.
If you would like to check out the website that I found this information for
your own descriptions of other components of an operating system I have
provided the url to where I found the above information. There is a lot of
information on this page.
I hope this helps.

could someone who understands what a child window is please help me out? I don't know what other example I can give than what I've already done... I'm sorry.

Interesting. But they might have thought to provide some examples.
obviously, they do not mean a document. But what, then. They should hire a
technical writing staff, not do this themselves.

Subject: child window
this is what Igot from hj pad.
In some applications, a separate window is used which is not attached to the
main application,
or parent window. This window is called the child window. The child window
can be sized, moved
or closed within the main application without altering the state of the main
application window.
