Try using it as a Local script. They are much easier to use when doing stuff with UI. Also, is this a StarterGUI that pops up when you join?

bin = script.Parent 

function Clicked()  
bin.Parent.Visible = false  


script.Parent.Parent.Visible = false 
--^ Why? bin.Parent is the same as script.Parent.Parent!

local Main = script.Parent.Parent.Parent:FindFirstChild("Main") 

--^ If the 'Main' is the same as script.Parent.Parent then it's the next line just makes the bin.Parent.Parent AKA 'Main' visible again.

Main.Visible = true

--^ Remove this, if script.Parent.Parent is 'Main'.

end 

bin.MouseButton1Down:connect(Clicked)

I'd rather do it like this;

local Visible = false

script.Parent:MouseButton1Down:connect(function()
if Visible == true then
    Visible = false
    script.Parent.Parent.Visible = false
elseif Visible == false then
    Visible = true
    script.Parent.Parent.Visible = true
end)

The local 'Visible' is because you could use some later on checks to see if the GUI is actually closed or opened.
