What about firing an event? On the TextBox's TextChanged event, set the value of the property in your parent to what is in the TextBox?

You can't bind the same UI property to two model properties. There are two options here: either have the VM for the text box and the VM for the parent bind to the same model property, or bind the text box to the parent's VM (well, the text property, but that's probably all you're binding from a text box).
