Passing value from child template to parent template

Ignition
1

I created a template with a repeater.
Inside this template will be templated toggle buttons.

I want to notify the parent template with repeater when any of the templated toggle buttons gets selected or deselected.

How can I achieve this?

Thanks

toggle button click >

event.source.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.SomeCustomMethodOnParentTemplate()
print event.source
	print event.source.parent
	print event.source.parent.parent
	print event.source.parent.parent.parent
	print event.source.parent.parent.parent.parent
	print event.source.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent
	print event.source.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent
	print event.source.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent
	print event.source.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent
	print event.source.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent
	print event.source.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent
	print event.source.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent
	print event.source.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent

So my next question is, how do I get the index of a template within a repeater?
