How to pass state back to parent in React?

by

Move handleClick to the parent and pass it to the child component as a prop.

<LoginPage handleClick={this.handleClick.bind(this)}/>

Now in the child component:

<form onSubmit={this.props.handleClick}>

This way submitting the form will update the state in parent component directly. This assumes you don’t need to access updated state value in child component. If you do, then you can pass the state value back from the parent to the child as a prop. One-way data flow is maintained. 

<LoginPage  handleClick={this.handleClick.bind(this)} decisionPage={this.state.decisionPage}/>
