Different meanings of child. To parents someone is always their child no matter how old they are. This is a distinct notion of child as in “human below the age of maturity”. Child in this sense means closer to genetic/memetic offspring that they have raised.
And the accepted length of childhood is once again incremented...
Edit: Parent comment is no longer phrased so as to carry this implication.

Fair enough, but it probably should have been phrased as “murder of one’s child”.
Ok, fixed.
Thanks!
