I have a parent object that contains a property that is a list of children objects. I'd like to have it so that when the form loads to create the parent object a partial view is used to create the list of child objects.

The problem is I have to idea how to have the list of children object populated. I can do one object ok, but a dynamic list of possible children is difficult. Any ideas?

@Html.RenderPartial("_CreateChild", Model.Children);

public class Parent
{
    private List<Child> _list;

    public Guid Id
    {
        get;
        set;
    }

    public List<Child> Children
    {
        get
        {
            return _list;
        }
        set
        {
            _list = value;
        }
    }

    public Parent()
    {
        _list = new List<Child>();
    }
}
