You need to access the children: Put this in the parent object:

 function GetRidOfChild(){    
   var script : ScriptNameInChild; 
   script = GetComponentInChildren(ScriptNameInChild);
   script.ChildDestroy ();
 }

Then in the child object, place a ScriptNameInChild.js (You can use another name obviously) and

 function ChildDestroy(){
   Destroy(gameObject);
 }

Name the script with a special name so that it odes not mess up with other objects.

I tried it and it works so 100%.

Name it PostBirthAbortion since you're destroying your children. That's a fun script name.
