Parricide

There’s actually a word to describe the act of killing your parents: Parricide.

  1. the act of murdering one’s father, mother, or other close relative
  2. the act of murdering a person (such as the ruler of one’s country) who stands in a relationship resembling that of a father
  3. a person who commits such an act

Is everything okay, c00ler? Do you want to talk about it?

I’m merely amazed at how there’s apparently a need to have a word to define such an act.

My parents are safe. For now.
