``parent``
==========
When a template uses inheritance, it's possible to render the contents of the
parent block when overriding a block by using the ``parent`` function:
.. code-block:: html+twig
{% extends "base.html" %}
{% block sidebar %}
<h3>Table Of Contents</h3>
...
{{ parent() }}
{% endblock %}
The ``parent()`` call will return the content of the ``sidebar`` block as
defined in the ``base.html`` template.
