Based on my testing, I would advise using this or $(this) versus e.target in your code. There are also a few things you can do to optimize your code. I got all parts working, yet widget is still not populate until after a click event. JSFiddle Example: https://jsfiddle.net/ghv46m0s/3/

JQUERY

$(function() {
  widget = {};

  $('.parent').click(function(e) {
    $('.parent').each(function(k, v) {
      $(v)
      .resizable('disable')
      .draggable('disable')
      .css({
        "border-width": "0px"
      });
    });
    $(this).draggable('enable')
    .resizable('enable')
    .css({
      "border-width": "1px"
    });
    widget = $(this);
  });

  $(window).resize(function(e) {
    var border = 10;
    console.log("Doing resize of window.");
    if (widget !== undefined) {
      ep = widget;
      epid = $(ep).attr('id');
      console.log(ep);

      ec = ep.children[0];
      ecid = $(ec).attr('id');

      w = parseInt($(ep).css('width'));
      h = parseInt($(ep).css('height'));

      if (w - border < 0) w = border;
      if (h - border < 0) h = 5;

      $(ec).css('width', w - border);
      $(ec).css('height', h - border);
    }
  });

  $('.parent').each(function() {
    $(this)
      .resizable()
      .draggable()
      .css({
        "border-width": "0px"
      });
    $(this)
      .resizable('disable')
      .draggable('disable');
  });
});

On click I pass $(this) into widget. When the resize event happens, no errors are generated.

I would advise you create some counter to check for click events on your .parent elements. See example: https://jsfiddle.net/ghv46m0s/2/ If the user resizes the browser, this counts as a resize event and can be part of the problem.
