Hy today i have some problems with the Panel Control and MDI Child Forms, My problem is that I can not set the panel control to back of child forms. My head is spinning trying to solve this problem.

It looks like you added your Panel to your ParentForm, doing so will keep on top. You need to Assign it to a ChildForm. One of your other options would be to create a dockable panel and dock it on the side of your parent.
Take a look at these articles

Based on your comment you can do something like this with a Timer set for 100ms
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
Panel1.Visible = CheckForMDIChildren()
End Sub
Private Function CheckForMDIChildren() As Boolean
If Me.MdiChildren.Count > 0 Then
For Each frm As Form In Me.MdiChildren
If frm.Visible Then Return False
Next
End If
Return True
End Function
