Unity | Raycast Hit Empty Object which has Objects as Children

Questions & Answers
1

I Have an Empty Object with no collider which has children that are ‘proper objects’ with colliders and meshes etc…

When I click on the Object and do:

RaycastHit hit;
Physics.Raycast(Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay(Input.mousePosition), out hit); 
hit.collider is Null (of course).

My question is, how can I get the Empty Object on hit?

Is there a way or I should apply a mesh collider on the Empty Object?

If yes, how can I do that?

P.S New to Unity

The objects are children so you can use hit.transform.parent to reference the empty object.
