Hey,
Am assuming you have the same script in both the parent and child and you are using the native mediapicker datatype.
I checked this and it works:

<umbraco:Macro runat="server" language="cshtml">
@using umbraco.MacroEngines;
@helper renderImage(DynamicNode node, Boolean isParent)
      {
      if(@node.GetPropertyValue("headerImage") != string.Empty){
      var mediaItem = Model.MediaById(@node.GetPropertyValue("headerImage"));
      @:<img src="@mediaItem.Url" alt="@mediaItem.Name" >
      }else
        {
         @renderImage(Model, false);
        }
}
     
@if (@Model.Parent.headerImage.GetType() != typeof(DynamicNull))
{
      @renderImage(Model.Parent, true);
}else {
      @renderImage(Model, false);
}
   
umbraco:Macro>

Thank for the reply. I get errors while adding @Model to the script.

   <umbraco:Macro runat="server" language="cshtml">
      @{var bodyText=@Model.HasProperty("headerImage");
      }
    </umbraco:Macro>

Do I have to add any namespace?
