Objective-C @property variables for an object of class

In my code i declare an @property for my Main class in my sub class to set values there

@property(nonatomic,retain)  MainViewController *father;

but i noticed that retain make the dealloc method not called in my main class, but when i change it to:

@property(strong, nonatomic)  BabyViewController *father;

the dealloc method returned to be called.

i did this without knowing if that effect my code performance or not.

i used this property to do this in my main class:

    subClass* controller = [[subClass alloc] initWithPageNumber:page];
    controller.father=self;
    [controller.view removeFromSuperview];

is this the best i can do ??

Better you can use assign property for the declaration of viewControllers and delegates.It will assign the data and won't dealloc the variable. So use like this,

@property(nonatomic,assign)  MainViewController *father;
