Does the Child profile Also get the same Edition at the Parent profile.

IMHO yes, they are part of that edition (Bond 50 i.e.).

It depends on the edition.  For example, 'The Rescuers / The Rescuers Down Under: 2-Movie Collection'.  That edition would only apply to the parent.

Agree, but I was trying to see if Special Edition or even Collector Edition or any other Edition that the Parent had would transfer to the Child.

I don't agree in the Bond 50 case. In the US at least, about half of the discs were already released in previous box sets so the edition wouldn't even be able to be added to most of them.

It might be useful to keep in mind that child profiles can be reused for many other box sets so putting the title of the box set in the edition may be shortsighted.

Doing so may work in some cases, for example: "Vertigo (Alfred Hitchcock: The Masterpiece Collection)". But it might be redundant for something like "Ocean's Eleven (Ocean's Eleven / Ocean's Twelve / Ocean's Thirteen: 3-Movie Collection)".

Another option I've seen is to take the title of the child profile straight from the disc label itself.
