If you're doing that there's almost certainly something wrong with your design.
What are you trying to achieve?

So you think disabling the foreign key is good idea?!?!?!
How will you enable it again when you're done?

Just delete the child records first.

This is not a good development approach.

As said cookiemonster Just delete the child records first.
