Kill the Parent, Raise the Child	comment	When a parent is murdered, the last person one would expect to take in their newly orphaned child is the murderer. But sometimes that's exactly what happens. It creates an interesting juxtaposition regarding the killer: the same person who took one life is now nurturing another. It also inverts the expectation that a victim's family member will naturally become an enemy of the killer since they instead become the killer's family member. There is a lot of potential for complicated and conflicting emotions within the relationship between the adoptive parent and the child. This trope often serves as a Pet the Dog moment for the adoptive parent by demonstrating that even though they're willing to kill another person, they still Wouldn't Hurt a Child. If the adoptive parent is a villain, this can be used to demonstrate that Even Evil Has Standards. They may even regret depriving an innocent child of their caretaker and step into that role themselves as a form of recompense. Sometimes the adoptive parent is a Hitman with a Heart who was hired to kill the biological parent but refused to harm a child or leave them to fend for themself. In some cases, the killer was misinformed about their target; either their target had them pegged wrong, or they were given details that are either false or omitted certain factsâ€”including the fact that their target has a kid. Even worse is if the biological parent was someone the killer knew personally and was tricked/decieved into killing them. There is also the scenario where the biological parent is actually abusive and/or neglectful leading to the murderer both actually saving the child (intentionally or not) and possibly becoming the parent the child deserves in the process. However, there are cases where the adoptive parent has sinister intentions for the child. While the child is usually orphaned due to a conflict with their parents, the killer may occasionally be specifically after the child, especially if they are of Royal Blood, and thus could either be married into the killer's bloodline or manipulated by a Regent for Life, has Superpowerful Genetics from their parents that would make them an excellent Tyke-Bomb, is foretold by prophecy to be a Chosen One, or otherwise has some unique feature that makes them worth seeking out even at a young age. In some cases this may be caused if the new guardian murdered the child's parent so that they could marry the surviving parent, thus becoming the child's stepparent, and usually a wicked one at that. The child's reaction to this situation may vary, depending on circumstances behind it. They may be willing to accept their adoptive parent despite the murder (especially if their biological parent was abusive or absent), or they may understandably want revenge for their biological parent's death. In some cases, the child doesn't even know that their adoptive parent killed their biological parent, potentially leading to a Broken Pedestal if they learn the truth. Compare Raised by Rival, where there was an ongoing rivalry or conflict (murder optional) between the biological and adoptive parents before the adoption. This trope does not necessitate an adversarial relationship between the biological and adoptive parents, as cases of Accidental Murder, Murder by Mistake, Mercy Kill, and Kill the Ones You Love would also qualify. Also see I Have a Family, where a character pleads for mercy because they have to take care of their family. This is a sister trope to Baby Be Mine and would overlap if the adoptive parent kills the biological parent specifically because they want a baby. As this is a Death Trope, unmarked spoilers abound.

When Erador asks if Anna would want revenge on him or Benedict, she affirms that thereâ€™s no reason to, as knowledge of the truth was all she was after and Benedict is her father in every way that matters.

Even after Jenny grows up, Trunchbull continues to force her to live in a bare-bones cottage while she stays in her father's opulent house and robs her of her inheritance, and it takes a plucky 6-year-old girl with telekinetic powers to set things right.

Kill the Parent, Raise the Child / int_1463a028	comment	Law & Order: Special Victims Unit: In one episode, Martin Short plays the Perp Of The Week, a rapist and murderer obsessed with virgins. He has a devoted wife and a little boy, but as the episode progresses, it's discovered that the wife actually can't have children because her husband refuses to have sex with her; he's obsessed with virgins and she wasn't one. She assaulted a woman who was near the end of her pregnancy and cut the unborn child from her womb in order to give her husband a son. She goes to prison at the end of the episode, with Stabler informing her, to her complete surprise, that the boy is being returned "to his real father, the grieving husband of the woman you butchered." Another episode had Sharon Lawrence play an Aileen Wuornos-inspired character who was also a loving mother. Her "son" was actually a little boy she had abducted from a supermarket after strangling his mother and leaving her widower to believe that he was dead, too.

Unfortunately for Wai, he was double-crossed weeks later and sentenced to 14 years in prison, and when he gets out and returns to his girlfriend and the now-teenaged girl, the girl finds out the truth.

To her surprise, a little girl named Brittany then comes looking for her father and screams at the sight of his body. Brittany is unaware that Connie is her father's killer because she fled from the room just before Brittany arrived. Upon seeing Brittany, Connie decides to take her along as her new daughter and apprentice. Connie tries to raise Brittany with her anti-union views and tells the little girl that "the world" came after her father for disrupting order.

(Elwing technically survives this thanks to some help from Ulmo, but goes to the Undying Lands and is separated from the world.) Out of guilt for his part in the murders, Maglor insists on adopting Elwing's infant children Elros and Elrond.

Turns out she'd agreed to sell her baby to an infertile couple who couldn't adopt legally, but she'd changed her mind. When she told the couple she was keeping the baby, they confronted her and she fell down the stairs, hitting her head and dying. Realizing the baby could still be saved, but that an ambulance would take too long (and they wouldn't be allowed to adopt him anyway), the couple cut out the baby and dumped his mother's body so they could keep him. Ultimately subverted because the episode ends with the baby being given to his grandparents to raise.

Eventually, it's revealed that Koda's mother, from whom he's been separated for a while, was the bear that Kenai killed. This revelation horrifies them both, though Koda comes to forgive Kenai (mostly because the latter regrets his actions). In the end, he becomes the older brother/foster parent of Koda, choosing to stay a bear.

Should a parent be prevented from fulfilling that duty — such as, for instance, by being killed — this is passed on to the person who prevented them. As a result, there is a fairly large population of ponies living in Protocera, the griffin nation, descended from orphans adopted during the various Protoceran-Equestrian border conflicts by the griffin warriors who slew their birth parents in battle.

After rescuing the last survivors of the Wenja tribe, Takkar, using his seemingly mystical ability to tame Ice Age megafauna like the saber-tooth cats and cave bears, begins waging a one-man war on the rival Udam and Izila tribes in revenge for the slaughter of his people. He completely succeeds, but comes to sympathize with the Udam, as he discovers their acts of cannibalism weren't driven by malicious sadism, but because they believed it would save them from a plague ravaging them. In his final moments, the Udam warchief Ull pleads with Takkar to spare his young daughter and newborn and care for them, which Takkar agrees to do before killing Ull. The game ends with a final cutscene between Takkar and Ull's daughter taking a cave bear, implying that not only is Takkar raising Ull's children as if they were his own, but that the daughter has picked up the same ability that Takkar wields.

They ended up having to kill one animal, a black panther. The panther, it turns out, had been guarding a cub, which Shizuru presents to Natsuki as a gift. Natsuki raises the cub, naming it Shizuki (a portmanteau of the two lovers' names), and the creature then proceeds to treat Natsuki as her mother from then on. Although Natsuki didn't personally kill the cub's parent, she was part of the collective effort to subdue the animals.

So they decide to raise Lu-erh as one of their members, each of them passing one of their skills to her.

Marquis' fury sees him cast aside his personal rule against harming women, killing Brandish and turning all the other adults into living pieces of modern art by warping their skeletons into grotesque shapes. He then adopts all three of their children under a false name, seeking to raise them better than their own parents would have done, and not leave them to suffer for their parents' actions. Crystal eventually learns about it when she sees Amelia's photo and starts asking questions.

Ayla feels guilty for making the foal an orphan and knows she won't survive alone, while Ayla herself is extremely lonely, so she coaxes the foal back to her cave and adopts her, naming her Whinney. In The Mammoth Hunters Ayla kills a lone female wolf who was stealing food from her friend's snares and getting too close to a nearby camp. She realises the wolf was nursing and finds her cub in a den, whose eyes are barely open yet. Having raised animals before and feeling sorry for the pup, Ayla asks for and is granted permission to raise him, naming him Wolf.

Years ago, a man bet big on a fixed horse race, and wound up deep in debt to the mob when his "sure thing" backfired. To make an example of him, the mob sent a trio of hitmen to murder the man, his wife, and his young son. Goodkat, the specialist hitman brought from out-of-town specifically to kill the boy, still finds he can't go through with it and adopts the boy instead. In the present day, the boy Slevin is now a young adult, working as Goodkat's apprentice. And the two of them are running a long con to avenge Slevin's parents by hunting down everyone else involved in the hit.
