Remove "Parent" Drop Down menu inSelection When Adding/Editing Categories Submenu?

I've been trying to find a way to hide/deactivate the Parent Drop Down Menudropdown menu from the Posts -> Categories submenu in a Post Type menuscreen.
http://example.com/wp-admin/edit-tags.php?taxonomy=category

I was able to hide the "Slug" option through this function here:

// Admin - Global Terms Enabled
function disable_global_terms($enablefalse) {
   return 1;
}
add_filter( 'global_terms_enabled', 'disable_global_terms' );

Is there a way I can do the same for the Parent Drop Down menu w/owithout deleting that code from the main WP files so I would have to do this each time w/with each update?

Thanks! Roc.

Edit for clarification: Menu: Post Type -> SubMenu: Categories (Add New, Slug, Parent, Description) Is it possible to remove the "Parent" drop down menu?
