I have lines of code like this:

$(this).parent().parent().children().each(function(){

});

It works well. But I need to run

If you work in no-conflict mode (i.e. out of global scope), one of the possibilities is:

jQuery.noConflict();

(function ($) {
    $('#button').on('click', myFunction);
}(jQuery));

// or
jQuery('#button').on('click', myFunction);

function myFunction() {
    var that = jQuery(this);
    console.log(that);
}
