 It's good practice to do all the parenting before animating as parenting on an animated object is error-prone.

+=== Symmetrize ===
+To symmetrize a modification to the other side of the rig, make sure the corresponding bones are present and the following nomenclature is respected : ''bone name.L'' and ''bone name.R'' with identical names for both sides.
+Then in **Edit** mode, right click on the rig and select **Symmetrize**.
+It is also a good idea when modifying the rig's position in **Edit mode** to activate a **Mirror** to copy modifications made on one side automatically to the other side.
