java - How to save the state of a checkbox in a nested recyclerView(Parent->Child)

Question

This is how it looks

I used Sharedpreferences, it did save the instance of a particular position of checkbox but it also saves the other itemlist(child list) at the different parent list. Is there a way to solve this or i need to use different method on saving the state of each checkbox? I hope someone can give a detailed answer as I'm still a beginner.

This is my code..

MainActivity.java

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
RecyclerView recyclerView;
ParentAdapter parentAdapter;
ArrayList<parentObj> parentObjList= new ArrayList<>();
ArrayList<childObj> childObjList;

Button addChecklist;
EditText listNameEdit;

private static ArrayList<String> itemName=new ArrayList<>();
private static String listName;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
    loadData();

    listNameEdit=(EditText) findViewById(R.id.listName);

    addChecklist =(Button) findViewById(R.id.addList);
    addChecklist.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            String getListName=listNameEdit.getText().toString();
            listName=getListName;
            addCheckList();
            saveData();
            listNameEdit.setText("");

            Intent a=new Intent(MainActivity.this,createList.class);
            startActivityForResult(a,1);
        }
    });


    setParentAdapter(parentObjList);
}

private void addCheckList(){
    childObjList= new ArrayList<>();
    parentObjList.add(new parentObj(listName,childObjList));
    parentAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
}

@Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, @Nullable Intent data) {
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
    if (requestCode == 1) {
        if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
            ArrayList<String> returnItemName=data.getStringArrayListExtra("itemName");
            itemName=returnItemName;

            int size=itemName.size();
            for (int i=0;i<size;i++){
                childObjList.add(new childObj(itemName.get(i)));
                parentAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
            }
            saveData();
        }
    }
}

private void setParentAdapter(ArrayList<parentObj> parentLists){
    recyclerView=findViewById(R.id.parentRView);
    RecyclerView.LayoutManager layoutManager=new LinearLayoutManager(this);
    recyclerView.setLayoutManager(layoutManager);
    parentAdapter=new ParentAdapter(this,parentLists);
    recyclerView.setAdapter(parentAdapter);
}

private void saveData() {
    SharedPreferences sharedPreferences = getSharedPreferences("shared preferences", Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
    SharedPreferences.Editor editor = sharedPreferences.edit();
    Gson gson = new Gson();
    String json = gson.toJson(parentObjList);
    editor.putString("task list", json);
    editor.apply();
}
private void loadData() {
    SharedPreferences sharedPreferences = getSharedPreferences("shared preferences", Context.MODE_PRIVATE);
    Gson gson = new Gson();
    String json = sharedPreferences.getString("task list", null);
    Type type = new TypeToken<ArrayList<parentObj>>() {}.getType();
    parentObjList = gson.fromJson(json, type);
    if (parentObjList == null) {
        parentObjList = new ArrayList<>();
    }
}

}

    int width=dm.widthPixels;
    int height=dm.heightPixels;
    getWindow().setLayout((int)(width*.99),(int)(height*.30));

    WindowManager.LayoutParams params = getWindow().getAttributes();
    params.gravity= Gravity.CENTER;
    params.x=0;
    params.y=20;
    getWindow().setAttributes(params);

    itemName=(EditText) findViewById(R.id.itemName);
    addItem=(Button) findViewById(R.id.addItem);
    addItem.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            String getItemName=itemName.getText().toString();
            itemLists.add(getItemName);
