The correct statement is:
**The parent function shifted vertically down 3 units and did not change in any other way.**
This is because the translation \( f(x) = x^2 - 3 \) indicates that the entire graph of the parent function \( f(x) = x^2 \) has been moved down 3 units without any horizontal shift or change in width.
