+# ThreadParent 
+
+ThreadParent facilitates spawning threads that maintain a reference to the thread that created them.
+The primary goal is to allow thread local variable lookup through the ancestor chain.
+
+## Installation
+
+Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
+
+    gem 'thread-parent'
+
+And then execute:
+
+    $ bundle
+
+Or install it yourself as:
+
+    $ gem install thread-parent
+
+## Usage
+
+You can either create ThreadParent::Thread directly:
+
+```ruby
+require 'thread-parent'
+
+Thread.current[:abc] = 'abc'
+
+ThreadParent::Thread.new do |thread|
+  
+  thread.parent == Thread.main #= true
+
+  # Since the thread variable isn't set locally it will be found in its parent.
+  Thread.current[:abc] #= 'abc'
+
+  # Local thread variable assignments work as expected.
+  Thread.current[:def] = 'def'
+
+  ThreadParent::Thread.new do
+    Thread.current[:def] #= 'def'
+
+    # The parent lookup will continue to the parent's parent until a variable is found.
+    Thread.current[:abc] #= 'abc'
+  end
+end
+```
+
+Or include the module to hijack references to Thread:
+
+```ruby
+require 'thread-parent'
+include ThreadParent
+
+Thread.new do
+  # This is really a ThreadParent::Thread
+end
+```
