   I would like to install a child theme, but the parent theme is already active. Do I need to disable the parent theme first. If so, How?

   Are you creating your own child theme? or do you have already created that you're ready to install?

   A correctly configured child theme will reference the "parent" in the style.css file. All you need to do is activate the child theme and it will look for installed the parent files itself.

   upload your child theme to server wp-content/themes/ then in dashboard Appearance > Themes, choose child theme and activate it.
