There is already a parent field that would give the comment ID of the comments parent. If that field is null then it must be the root of the comment tree. The ID field's telling it which module the comment belongs to should always be set so that it will be possible to always display the news article, or poll results etc no matter where in the comment tree you are.

If commentparent == false then it's connected to a news artical and if == true it's connected to a comment.
