I'm trying to select the id of a textArea when it's focused in

<s:TextArea id="textarea1" focusIn="selectId(event)" />

selectId(event){
   event.target.id;
}

Problem is TextArea is made up of RichEditableText so target doesn't actually refer to TextArea. I've tried event.target.parent.id but still not getting there. Anyone knows how to get to the bottom of this?
