 * Hi,
    I purchased a wordpress template (from themeforest.com). Should I make a
   child theme before I start making changes, or is that only necessary for a free
   template?
 * Thanks.

 * It’s not up to use to decide, you should ask all queries regarding commercial
   products to your product’s vendors.
