As far as i can tell Events in VUEJS provide a way to inform your parent components of changes in children. as per : https://alligator.io/vuejs/component-communication/

using :

<my-component v-on:myEvent="parentHandler"></my-component>

Firing an Event from the child to inform parent by:

export default {
  methods: {
    fireEvent() {
      this.$emit('myEvent', eventValueOne, eventValueTwo);
    }
  }
}

I would like the parent to trigger an method found in a child component, so i can do something prior to continuing to 'finish' something at the parent level. Can this be done?
