What might be considered the inverse of Offing the Offspring, and is equally aberrant behavior, is when a character murders their own parents. Any character behaving this way will probably be Ax-Crazy and/or a Psycho for Hire. An Evil Prince or princess can also do that if they’re impatient enough. It's the ultimate mark of an Enfant Terrible, Antagonistic Offspring, Adult Hater, or the Abusive Offspring, the end result of a Betrayal by Offspring, and a likely origin of an Evil Orphan (who may also be abusive). It can be justified if the parents happen to be abusive or cruel mockeries of humanity from beyond the void — insofar as murder can be, but at least it's then the domain of the dark and troubled protagonists. It's more justifiable if the parent is an outright villain. In addition, there are also instances where the child either unintentionally killed their parents or something genuinely horrific happened to their parents so that they were forced to kill them. It can also be justifiable if said parent was going to be Offing the Offspring anyway, and the offspring in question needed to defend themself and had no choice. Or, it may just be because the child Hates Their Parent. As a result, while this trope is a Moral Event Horizon for many people, especially if the parents were innocent and loved their child who killed them, it often is considered significantly less bad if said parents totally deserved their death for whatever reason. Contrast with Even Bad Men Love Their Mamas, which is based on the premise that no one, no matter how bad, would act this way. If it happens before the murderer is born, this is the Grandfather Paradox. If only the father or mother is killed, then it's Patricide or Matricide, respectively. The extreme version, where a person kills not just their parents but their entire people or clan is Genocide from the Inside. One subversion is to have this happen by accident and/or for the parents' death be ultimately caused by their own actions involving the child. If said parent's child also happens to be a Mook of the parent, it can also overlap into The Dog Bites Back. Another case could be if the parents were suffering something bad, like And I Must Scream, and their child stops it by putting them to death. A Sub-Trope of Murder in the Family. An extreme aversion of Honor Thy Parent. As this is a Death Trope, unmarked spoilers abound. Beware. |

It's implied Ginger and Brigitte did this to their abusive parents in Ginger Snaps Back: The Beginning. When they come upon an outpost, Ginger says that their parents drowned - which is soon revealed to the audience to be bullshit. However, when talking privately with Brigitte, Ginger still alludes to their parents being dead, so one wonders why she had to lie about it before. Add in the casual references to them having been beaten before, and the fact that for some reason, they're traveling on their own during winter at the start of the movie, and the fact that Ginger, at least, always had some sociopathic tendencies, and... Yeah. | |

In the present, after Zoey frees her, she wastes no time to take revenge against her father by gassing him with poison in the same glass prison he trapped her within. | |

Bleak Expectations: Series Big Bad Mr. Gently Benevolent is one. It was his second act of evil (the first was him punching an annoying boy who'd caused him to finally become evil). Played with, in that neither his mother or his step-father are actually upset about this. His step-father praises him for having "finally grown a backbone", and his mother says she's proud of him. | |

Subverted in Paint It Green, Blue, Black. For all its worth, Enfant Terrible Vendetta won't kill her parents and gets mad when Charlotte asks her how come she hasn't killed them already. It's never clarified why, but it's unlikely to be for moral reasons as she has no issue helping Charlotte kill her grandmother. | |

RWBY: Mercury Black murdered his single father Marcus as retaliation for the former's abuse. In the tie-in novel RWBY: Roman Holiday, it's revealed that Neapolitan, formerly known as Trivia Vanille, was responsible for the deaths of her abusive parents. After her parents sell Roman out and try to imprison her again, Neo escapes and tricks the Spiders into blowing up the mansion. She planned to kill her father by trapping him with the Dust cache he'd been hiding in her bedroom most of her life...but she accepts her mother's likely death as a consequence of earning her freedom. |

Catherine Trammell from the Basic Instinct movies may have killed her parents after writing a book detailing her plan to do so, then used, "right, I wrote out this plan for killing my parents, published it in a book, then did it — I'd have to be crazy to do that" as a defense. Whether she actually did murder her parents or not is not actually stated, though several characters express their opinions that she did. | |

In The Gravedancers, the young Pyromaniac Dennis killed his parents, and the rest of his family, when he burned down the family home. However, he was trapped in the house and died in the blaze as well. He returns as a ghost with pyrokinetic abilities. | |

WWE's The Undertaker may be a self-made orphan, or may not be. All we really know is that his parents died in a fire at the funeral home they owned and operated. At various points, we've been told that he set it by accident, he set it on purpose, his half-brother Kane set it, etc. It's all very confusing and pointless. Nah, Undertaker definitely started the fire. Then again, this was during Taker's Ministry of Darkness phase, when he was allied with Paul Bearer again, so there's definitely a hint of ambiguity/unreliability as to who did what. For we know, Bearer could've torched the home. This was during Vince Russo's run as booker, and he loves Ass Pulls, even if they produce nonsensical incoherent unresolved storylines. Vince Russo or not, the backstory of both Undertaker and Kane can be easily considered a complete mess. |

In the tie-in novel RWBY: Roman Holiday, it's revealed that Neapolitan, formerly known as Trivia Vanille, was responsible for the deaths of her abusive parents. After her parents sell Roman out and try to imprison her again, Neo escapes and tricks the Spiders into blowing up the mansion. She planned to kill her father by trapping him with the Dust cache he'd been hiding in her bedroom most of her life...but she accepts her mother's likely death as a consequence of earning her freedom. | |

In The Last Days of FOXHOUND, Ocelot sets up a The Reveal and then tells Pyscho Mantis that I Am Your Father. Mantis' only response is a deadpan "No you're not. I killed my father when I was eight." Ocelot looks slightly uncomfortable (no small feat) and changes the subject to the actual reveal. | |

In Spider-Man: The Animated Series, the Kingpin is as strongly implied to be this as the censors would allow. After being left for the police by his father in a robbery gone south, he walked out of prison with the physical strength, connections, and mentality needed to build his empire. It's not made clear what he did to his father, but Smythe is shocked that even Kingpin could be so ruthless. Near the end of that storyline, the Kingpin makes his own son Richard take the fall for Kingpin's exposed scheme. Along his wife left him for earlier actions, the Kingpin is left alone holding a photo of his shattered family, bitterly wondering when his own son would take his revenge. | |

Keith Keiser of TwoKinds killed his drunken father in self-defense after said father had killed his own wife. On top of it, he was accused of both murders and banished. It turns out that his father was actually innocent; the Intelligence General murdered Keith's mother when he found out she was from the other Bastin nation, the one without the compulsion to follow any order. | |

Iron Man: Armored Adventures: Justin Hammer’s father died under mysterious circumstances and Justin comments about a deity that did whatever necessary to gain power. Nick Fury even suspects that Justin killed his father to take control of Hammer International. In one episode a Jerkass classmate implies that Tony did this to his father because of their (actually friendly and good-spirited) competition to one-up each other's inventions. It's completely false and Tony does not take it well at all. |

In The North Remembers, Ramsay Bolton, during Stannis Baratheon's attack on Winterfell, finally loses it and kills his father Roose Bolton with his flaying knife. He takes him off guard as he's shouting orders to his men, and drags the knife deep down into his spine and through his throat. When the castle explodes, he finds the corpse of his father horribly mutilated from all the rubble and pees on it as a final insult. To most characters, this would be seen as a Moral Event Horizon, but considering how Roose had betrayed and murdered his own King, desecrating his body with the Freys, it's more of a Karmic Death. Fat Walda Frey, who is Ramsay's step-mother, also meets a gruesome end as Ramsay beats her to death with a jagged rock. | |

In Scream 3, it's revealed that Sidney has a half-brother named Roman Bridger, who was conceived when their mother Maureen was gang-raped by a number of movie producers. Roman tracked down Maureen years later but was rejected by her. He then stalked her for months, learning she'd had affairs with a number of men in Woodsboro, and orchestrated her murder by using Billy Loomis (and by extension Stu Macher) as a proxy. During the film proper, Roman murders John Milton, one of the producers who participated in Maureen's gang-rape, as his last victim. | |

Alluded to in Red Eye when Jackson Rippner is discussing his unfortunate name. Whether he is joking or not isn't exactly clear, knowing this fellow. He also told the female character that he'd never lied to her... Make of that what you will. |

Soul Eater: Troubled Souls: Bizarrely, Crona is directly responsible for the deaths of both his/her father and mother. Sometimes when they were still together, Medusa ordered Crona to kill a certain Evil Human and Ragnarok to eat its soul. After the deed is done, Medusa muses on how “[its] genes helped [her] created the perfect subject,� all but confirming that Medusa made Crona kill his/her biological father. In the third arc, Crona finally achieves payback against Medusa for all the crimes and heinous acts she’s committed to him/her personally and those around him/her. | |

In The Curse of the Living Corpse the father of the Sinclair family has died, although the family suspects that he only looked dead and is now back and killing them for disobeying his last will and testament. It's actually the second son, Philip, killing everyone else, including his mother, Abigail. Presumably Rufus, the father, actually is dead. | |

The VVitch: A sympathetic example with Thomasin. Her father had already died via being mauled by Black Phillip, and then her mother, now completely insane and blaming Thomasin for the family's misfortunes, attempts to strangle her. Thomasin stabs her to death, visibly in tears the whole time, and holding her in her arms after she dies. | |

The Omnicronians of Futurama eat their mothers when they grow up. Leela understandably regrets telling a baby Omnicronian that she hoped he would always think of her as a foster mom after he tells her this. It's implied that the other parent doesn't fare much better, if at all; Lrrr claims to have killed his own father, and "Patricide" has its own merit badge in the Omicronian equivalent of scouts. Leela nearly does this herself when she and her mutant parents are reunited. She takes the photos they have of her as proof that they are creepy stalkers who murdered her birth parents. Her parents go along with it because they'd rather die than let their daughter live with the shame of being a mutant. Fortunately, Fry and the others arrive just in time to reveal the truth. |

Jack: Drip was told by his horrific grandmother that he had killed his parents, in some roundabout way about his birth forcing them to live in a bad neighborhood where they got brutally murdered. But then in an arc showing how he became the Anthropomorphic Personification of Lust it's shown that thanks to the odd nature of time in the afterlife he actually did kill his parents, Lucifer led him to believe that they were an ex-girlfriend of his and her husband, and he didn't realize his mistake until he dropped their baby on his mother's torn open ribcage and got a good look at him. And Drip's daughter Lita is more than a bit obsessed with killing him for what he did to her mother and to herself, even committing suicide in order to follow him into hell and kill him again, though she really had no idea what she was getting into. | |

The truth isn't that simple, however: Sangwoo easily admits to having murdered his abusive father, but whether or not his mother died at his hands or his father's still isn't revealed. There are panels from Sangwoo's perspective of him strangling his mother, but there's nothing concrete to prove if these were memories, or if he was hallucinating. | |

Examples from Pokémon Reset Bloodlines: The whole plot of Chapter 23 happens because Belladonna is determined to kill the father of her girlfriend Aurora for betraying and abandoning her. Aurora for her part only follows along with the plan because she's afraid of Belladonna leaving her, even though she doesn't want her father to die. A criminal named Heratia gave birth to seven sons to use as tools to commit her crimes. One of them managed to escape from her clutches and made a new life. The remaining six seized the chance when she was brought down by Gligarman and beat her to death. |

The Uricarn from The Wotch is a self-made Last of His Kind. It's likely he killed his parents because, in an aside, he regrets killing them all while he was still a kid. He wishes he left a female alive. | |

In Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare, Maggie kills Freddy Krueger, her father. However, he was already a horrifically evil serial killer. Also, Freddy himself. Years after being abandoned by his birth mother, he murders his abusive stepfather. | |

Addams Family Values has this in the form of Debbie Jellinsky, the kids' apparent nanny and professional "black widow"-style Serial Killer who reveals that her first murders were her parents, who got her a Malibu Barbie instead of a Ballerina Barbie on her birthday: "That's not what I wanted! That's not who I was! I was a ballerina! Graceful! Delicate! They had to go." So she burned the family house down with them inside. | |

Sick Sad World: The first case in "Fathers In Crime" has a family man kill everyone in his family, among them his mother. The second case is about a college-age man who killed several of his family members, including his mother. He meant to kill his father as well, but it didn't work out that way. "Who You Gonna Call?" discusses a college-age kid who killed his family, starting with his parents. |

In Dragons: Riders of Berk, it is strongly implied that Dagur the Deranged, Mad Chief of the Berserker Tribe, killed his own father. Dagur claims that his father Oswald the Agreeable "retired", later saying that he "had to be eliminated" so that he could become chief. Oswald is never seen or heard from once in the show. However, it is revealed later on that Dagur didn't kill Oswald. Dagur did deliberately play up the notion early in his career, thinking he wouldn't be taken seriously as such a young chief unless people were given a reason to fear him, but he actually had no idea what happened to Oswald until late in Race to the Edge. | |

Ace Attorney: Played cruelly with Miles Edgeworth thinking for fifteen years that he accidentally killed his father Gregory and having constant nightmares about it. Subverted, in that it was proven that he was wrong: Gregory was murdered by his rival Manfred Von Karma, who later manipulated the surroundings to make everyone think Edgeworth had done it. In the final case of Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney, a young woman named Vera Misham is put on trial for killing her father, but she is innocent. The actual killer is Kristoph Gavin, who also tries to kill her. Dual Destinies has Athena Cykes eventually accused of murdering her mother Metis (the initial "culprit", Simon Blackquill, was Taking the Heat) and, unlike with Edgeworth's case, everyone believed it was a deliberate act, albeit one with sympathetic motives (it was thought that Metis had been treating her as a guinea pig for her scientific experiments and Athena eventually snapped). Athena herself eventually believes she did it because all she can remember of that day was stabbing someone and feeling the blood run down the blade and onto her fingers. It turns out that someone else killed Metis, Athena accidentally walked on the crime scene, and what she actually recalled was stabbing the real killer in self-defense. |

Richard of Looking for Group admits having killed his own father. In fact, he's proud of it. Actually, he thinks of it as a funny story. But then again, anything involving killing is funny to Richard. | |

In Dark Phoenix, the film opens with a young Jean Grey accidentally killing her parents when she loses control of her powers and causes her mother to fall asleep at the wheel, causing the car to crash into a truck. It turns out that only her mother was killed in the crash, while her father gave Jean up to Professor X. | |

The Peace Not Promised: In his first life, Severus Snape killed his parents at Voldemort's instruction, to remove any possible alternative claim on the Prince family inheritance. Since his mother was merely grossly neglectful, he was merciful enough to kill her painlessly in her sleep. His alcoholic and violent father, not so much. | |

In The Prayer Warriors, Percy Jackson, having joined the Prayer Warriors on their quest to kill the Greek Gods, kills Zeus after declaring that he is not his father- God is- in order to avoid committing the sin of patricide. Canonically, Poseidon is Percy's father, but Percy kills him later that chapter, so this still counts any way you look at it. Thalia, Zeus' daughter, helps kill Zeus in a flashback to the retconned version of the scene. | |
