** ''Theatre/OedipusTyrannus'': Oedipus is cast out from his home and raised by adoptive parents who did not tell him that he was adopted. One day, as an adult, he kills a man in a dispute on the road, who was in fact his father -- who, in great irony, had thrown him out to begin with [[SelfFulfillingProphecy due to a prophecy stating that he would be killed by his own son]]. He's later indirectly responsible for his mother's death when the revelation of their SurpriseIncest drives her to suicide.

Contrast with EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas, which is based on the premise that [[EvenEvilHasStandards no one, no matter how bad, would act this way]]. If it happens before the murderer is born, this is the GrandfatherParadox. If only the father or mother are 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 GenocideFromTheInside.
