        {
            InitializeComponent();
            m_parent = frm1;
        }

calling parent functions from child form

Main frm = new Main();
frm.Show();
frm.Activate();
this.Hide();

This will hide the current form and shows Main form.

You can get a ref from parent in child and then use close method of parent.
