Advice on child process reading parent's process flags

Hello,
  Could someone kindly explain how to, or point me towards code examples
which illuminate how to _correctly_/safely read a parent's process flags
(p->flags)?
'current' is the child, which needs to read it's parents process flags.
current->ppid I assume is the parent's processID, if it's local then no
problem (conceptually ppid->vproc->task_struct?), if remote then things get
interesting.
 
TIA,
 
Stan.
