Child Rotation means the Parent will be created with the same rotation as the first child (GameObject) in the selection, setting the child to local rotation (0,0,0).

Parent with Identity Rotation.

Identity Rotation means that the Parent will be created with local rotation (0,0,0).

You can drag GameObject in the Hierarchy to remove or add them to the Parent. See example below.
