There are a few things you can do to achieve this.  If you create a user on a child site that exists on the parent site, then you need to create a user with the exact same username and passwordas the one on the parent.  This will make the user exists on both sites. 

Another option would be to add any user that needs to exist on both sites into the UserPortals table.   The UserPortals table associates a UserID with the portal the user has access to.   If you have a few select users that need to work across portals then you could add entries in the UserPortals table for those users.

The third option is a third party module that allows you to share users across portals.

I have used DnnMasters.com User Sharing Extreme to do this.  It allows for the sharing of users and roles across portals and sound like something you are wanting.

I think DataSprings.com offers a User Login module that will also allows users from one portal to login to another.
