Killing feudalism is more important than the kids of the feudal lords. Feudalism was a curse on our lands from the end of the roman empire, to the 20th century in russia.
Oh, good thing, then, that the Bolsheviks were killing feudalism, right?
Oh, no? What they actually killed was a democratic socialist government which had already successfully deposed the Tsar and his family without causing a civil war?

The French Revolution effectively murdering the ten year old child that was the Dauphin was one of its crimes.
Less relevantly to the issue of children, the same with murdering Citoyen Egalite, whose only crime was supporting the Revolution.
Just as a royal family will kill the kids that have rival claimants.
