title: wordpress child theme styles.css does not want to override parent style.css
body: <p>My child theme <code>styles.css</code> does not want to override parent <code>style.css.</code></p>
  
  <p>I am working with the <code>wordpress theme twenty fourteen</code> .</p>
  
  <p>I have created a child theme, and through research have found the following piece of code...</p>
  
  <pre><code>require_once( get_stylesheet_directory() . '/my_included_file.php' );
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>My question is where exactly does this code go? I read in the <code>functions.php</code>. So do I put it in the first line of the page.
  I want my child theme stylesheet to take priority over my parent stylesheet.</p>
  
  <p>Thank you any help would be great..</p>
