 Right now theme developers need to use php require and file path to
 require a file. It will better, WordPress code provide a function to
 supply path of file in a function and it will do reset of work. Like:

 {{{#!php
 <?php
 /**
  * Require the file of parent theme.
  *
  * @since 4.9.0
  *
  * @param string $file Required. File to require.
  * @return required the file.
  */
 function wp_require_parent_theme_file( $file = '' ) {
         $file = ltrim( $file, '/' );

         if ( ! empty( $file ) ) {
                 $path = get_template_directory() . '/' . $file;
         } else {
                 return;
         }

         require $path;
 }
 }}}
