A more practical question as the philosophical aspect seems not to gain traction:

 in which order? The parents first and then the descendants or in reverse? Or all at the same time? Or it doesn't matter... Just don't let it spills on your shoes Cool

In small communities, little kingdoms work well. I think, the descendants of the king won't die as long as there're small communities where that hierarchy's being used. I'm just not sure how long small communities can survive in the future...

small communities cant survive against big ones. Big and powerful communities have a tendency to destroy small societies. For that reason, small societies must gather and make war against big ones.

Lol for me the idea of being a subject or even vassal of a king would inevitably lead me to conspire for his removal... Change is life.

What do you think of the children of saddam, Ben laden or quaddafi? For me as long as it's a boy, girl or woman they have a chance to build a new life... However older... Who knows.

The Soviet for example killed all the family of the tsar in a cave... Or at least those people never showed again.

At every shift, this question arose... From the tsar to the past pharaohs. What do you think about it?

They have been groomed for succession and to continue the deeds. And they may gather support and be rallying point for future opposition. As Robespierre would say, a few more what does it change at this point...
