Default parenting

hey there, Anyone help me with simple object parenting?

Ive parented the money bag to my characters arm which is fine but I want him to release t on the table.

Is it possible to unparent something half way through an animation??

Select the bag and under Motion Options - Add Modifier - add Parenter

Haven't played with it myself, so can't give you any more info.
Try it and see what you come up with.

Cheers!
