Do Bindable Events need a parent?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Quick Question, if you needed a bindable event should you parent the Bindable Event or just leave the parent nil, or does it not matter?
Sorry if there was another topic similar to this one, I googled, searched on the dev forum and, couldn’t find anything similar.

You have to have a parent for it, or it will defeat the whole purpose of it(how would you reference the bindable from another script?).

#3

No, they do not need a parent.

This code works:

local event = Instance.new("BindableEvent")

event.Event:Connect(print)
event:Fire("yes")
event:Destroy()
