I've got a parent-child OO relationship. Parent obejcts has many child objects and every child object knows about it's parent by reference.

The parent can be a child too (basically its a tree).

When i do a var_dump() on the root object it says ["parent"]=>RECURSION many times and the generated description will be really long.

I'm wondering if i do something wrong. If yes, i'm interested in the "best practice".

Thanks for the help!
