You can change the parent of a transform by calling Transform.SetParent or by directly replacing Transform.parent . In addition, in the latest versions of the unit, a new version of Instantiate has appeared , which allows you to specify the parent when creating an object.

using UnityEngine;

public class NewBehaviourScript : MonoBehaviour
{
    public Transform prefab;
    public Transform parent;

    private void Start()
    {
        // Создаём новый объект из префаба
        var child = Instantiate(prefab);
        // Присваиваем родителя
        child.SetParent(parent);
        // Либо так
        child.parent = parent;

        // Либо сразу в одну строчку
        var child = Instantiate(prefab, parent);
    }
}

When replying to your comment, check to whom you are trying to parent, a prefab or a new object.
