PyQt5 Parent/Child GraphicsItem Hover Behavior

I create several subclassed QGraphicRectItems with parent/child relationships to keep them in lock step on the screen. For whatever reason, the hover events on the children are triggering the parent hover event, but I want all of the instances' hover events to be independent. Is there any way to keep this from happening? Does an independent event filter need to be used? Strangely, adding the parent item to the scene after the children makes the hover events independent, but then the motion is wrong if the parent is moved.

Here is a MWE:

import sys
from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtWidgets, QtGui

# Define a hoverable rectangle item to be used by the DefinitionGraphic
class HoverRectItem(QtWidgets.QGraphicsRectItem):

    # Initialize
    def __init__(self, x, y, width, height,
                 parent = None,
                 fill = QtCore.Qt.blue,
                 highlight = QtCore.Qt.red,
                 name = ''):
        super().__init__(x, y, width, height, parent = parent)

        # Set fill and highlight colors
        self.fill_brush = QtGui.QBrush(QtGui.QColor(fill))
        self.hover_brush = QtGui.QBrush(QtGui.QColor(highlight))
        self.setBrush(self.fill_brush)
        self.name = name

        # Enable hover events
        self.setAcceptHoverEvents(True) 

    # Define the Hover Event
    def hoverEnterEvent(self, event):
        print(self.name+" hover enter")
        self.setBrush(self.hover_brush)
        self.update()
        super().hoverEnterEvent(event)

    # Define the Hover Leave Event
    def hoverLeaveEvent(self, event):
        print(self.name+" hover leave")
        self.setBrush(self.fill_brush)
        self.update() 
        super().hoverLeaveEvent(event)

# Main
if __name__ == "__main__":

    # Initialize the app
    app = QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)

    # Create the scene
    scene = QtWidgets.QGraphicsScene()

    # Create rectangles
    central_rect = HoverRectItem(0, 0, 100, 50, parent = None, name = 'central')
    scene.addItem(central_rect)
    central_rect.setFlags(QtWidgets.QGraphicsItem.ItemIsMovable)
    input_rect = HoverRectItem(-30, 0, 20, 50, parent = central_rect, name = 'input')
    scene.addItem(input_rect)
    output_rect = HoverRectItem(110, 0, 20, 50, parent = central_rect, name = 'output')
    scene.addItem(output_rect)

    # Create the view and show
    view = QtWidgets.QGraphicsView(scene)
    view.setWindowTitle("QGraphicsItem Hover Example")
    view.show()
    app.exec_()
