    Pictorially:

    .

    Select the "Pencil" 'Icon" for the Child, to get the "Parent-Child" Relationship.

    .

    Then, a "Pop-Up" (ie. "Modal") 'Window' will appear, being the "Parent-Child" Relationship.

    .

    Changing Parents _ 1 _ Mother of Father

    .

    Then, you have to decide which Parent you want to "Remove" or "Replace"

    .

    Once you have decided with Parent yo want to "Remove" or "Replace" ...

    .

    Select the "Remove or Replace" 'link' for the Parent you want to "Remove" or "Replace".

    .

    A new (ie. another) "Pop-Up" (ie. "Modal") 'Window' will appear, being the "Remove" or "Replace" ... [Mother or Father].

    .

    Father

    .

    Changing Parents _ 2 _ Father

    .

    Mother

    .

    Changing Parents _ 2 _ Mother

    .

    "Tick" (ie. Check) the "Check" 'Box' with the statement: "I have reviewed the relationships, sources, and notes for these individuals".

    .

    Then, decide whether you want to "Remove" (without adding a known individual/person); or, "Replace" (with a known individual/person); and, select the applicable 'Button'.

    .

    A new (ie. another) "Pop-Up" (ie. "Modal") 'Window' will appear, being, EITHER, the "Remove"; or, the "Replace", depending on the option you chose.

    .

    Remove

    .

    Changing Parents _ 3 _ REMOVE

    .

    Add a "Reason Statement"; and, select "Remove".

    .

    Replace

    .

    Changing Parents _ 3 _ REPLACE

    .

    Replace with the individual/person you want

    .

    Done.

    .

    And, ...

    .

    Here is a "Knowledge Article" in 'FamilySearch':
