If you mean http://www.debian.org - Distribution ( blue button ) - off the 
net (1st paragraph) - United States (FTP), that should take you to
ftp://ftp.us.debian.org/debian, and you should see the welcome message.
Down below there are several README files, you should read at least
one. 

And then there's Distribution - Installation Instructions in the left 
sidebar menu on www.debian.org. Or does that give you the Parent list,
too (WTF is a Parent list anyway?)
