Parenting in python

Hey guys!
I was wondering if there was a way to parent an object during runtime.
like a obj.setParent() or something
btw i add the object by scene.addObject()
[im using blender’s internal game engine on blender 2.79]

yes, addObject() returns the new object

newobj = scene.addObject("thing", owner, 0)
newobj.setParent(owner, False, False)

thanks.
btw i knew that addObject() returns the object but was curious if there was a addObjectAsParent() or somegthing.
but thanks, setParent() works.
