how to create script that modify xml file

sample xml file:

<root>
  <parent name="a" id="1">
    <child name="a.a" id="1.1" />
    <child name="a.b" id="1.2" />
    <child name="a.c" id="1.3" />
  </parent>
  <parent name="b" id="2">
    <child name="b.a" id="2.1" />
  </parent>
  <parent name="c" id="3">
    <child name="c.a" id="3.1" />
    <child name="c.b" id="3.2" />
  </parent>
</root>

php script should be able to modify the xml file. it should be able to
insert a parent element say between parent A and parent B. the id of
the new parent element should be parent B with its child respectively.
the parent elements below the new element should adjust the ids. in the
example above, parent B id should be 3 and its child id should be 3.1.
same goes to parent C and its childs.
result would be:
<root>
  <parent name="a" id="1">
    <child name="a.a" id="1.1" />
    <child name="a.b" id="1.2" />
    <child name="a.c" id="1.3" />
  </parent>
  <parent name="newparent" id="2">
    <child name="newparent.a" id="2.1" />
    <child name="newparent.b" id="2.2" />
  </parent>
  <parent name="b" id="3">
    <child name="b.a" id="3.1" />
  </parent>
  <parent name="c" id="4">
    <child name="c.a" id="4.1" />
    <child name="c.b" id="4.2" />
  </parent>
</root>
