Raise the show.bs.modal event before the parent event

Question

I have a boot button (I used bootstrap 4) that open a modal file and transfer the data, which in the button has the form in a modal function:

$('#exampleModal').on('show.bs.modal', function (event).

the button is in a div (parent). when I click on the button of the parent event triggered in front of the child. I do not want the parent event to fire. I only need a popup modal discovery. when I try to open a button by first clicking its call, but no data will be transferred. this is my code example: codepen

this is html

<div class="row">
  <div class="col-12 parent">
    I'm the parent!
    <div class="child">
      I'm the child
      <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#exampleModal"       data-whatever="@mdo" data-message="@test message" >Open modal </button>

    </div>
  </div>
</div>



<!-- Bootstrap Modal -->
<div class="modal fade" id="exampleModal" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="exampleModalLabel" aria-hidden="true">
  <div class="modal-dialog" role="document">
    <div class="modal-content">
      <div class="modal-header">
        <h5 class="modal-title" id="exampleModalLabel">New message</h5>
        <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-label="Close">
          <span aria-hidden="true">&times;</span>
        </button>
      </div>
      <div class="modal-body">
        <form>
          <div class="form-group">
            <label for="recipient-name" class="form-control-label">Recipient:</label>
            <input type="text" class="form-control" id="recipient-name">
          </div>
          <div class="form-group">
            <label for="message-text" class="form-control-label">Message:</label>
            <textarea class="form-control" id="message-text"></textarea>
          </div>
        </form>
      </div>
      <div class="modal-footer">
        <button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
        <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Send message</button>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

this is a script

<script>
$(".parent").click(function(event){
  alert("Parent event");
})


/*
if I add this function I cant transfer the data that in the button
$(".child").click(function(event){
  alert("Child event");
  event.stopPropagation();
  $('#exampleModal').modal('show');
})*/



$('#exampleModal').on('show.bs.modal', function (event) {
  alert("btn event");
  var button = $(event.relatedTarget) // Button triggered the modal
  var recipient = button.data('whatever')
  var message = button.data('message') 
  var modal = $(this)
  modal.find('.modal-title').text('New message to ' + recipient)
  modal.find('.modal-body input').val(recipient)
  modal.find('.modal-body textarea').val(message)
})
</script>
