Title: Does Child Pay Parent still work? Sent with a fee .002 to pay parents

Sent this to myself a little bit ago, no confirmations.  I sent it to a few of my wallets previously, each time increasing the fee.  Just trying to get the parent transaction confirmed....  any ideas?  Not willing to pay 69.00 usd that btc.com wants for acceleration, and been hitting the via btc accelerator each hour.  If there is a big mining pool that sees this, I will tip to get this confirmed.

If this problem happens again then you can contact the users macbook-air or quickseller on this forum and they should be able to speed it up for you. (They have access to an accelerator from a company that mines a new block every few blocks - probably a maximum of two hours until your transaction is confirmed), for a small fee to make the transaction up to be high enough to be considered as a regular transaction is (not the $69 that the other site wanted). (i suspect one of them or an owner of a pool may have noticed this when it was posted though if there's a large enough stake of 0.002BTC then they'll mine it fairly quickly after finding it).

edit: as it was f2pool who mined it, it was one of those two users i mentioned who noticed it.
