I have a class PrivateConnection which is a derived class from the
CoreConnection class.

class CoreConnection
{
private bool mCanWrite = true;
protected bool CanWrite
{
get { return mCanWrite; }
set { mCanWrite = value; }
}
}

class PrivateConnection : CoreConnection
{
public void ChangeParentCanWrite()
{
parent.CanWrite = false; // this will not work!
}
}

Now I want to set the "CanWrite" property in its parent object from
the method in "PrivateConnection". What's the snytax for this? Thanks!

Just

CanWrite = false;

will do. There's no "parent object" - being an instance of
PrivateConnection means you're *also* an instance of CoreConnection.

I think you need to understand *interfaces* public or private *interfaces*.
