If the parent process is sent a SIGKILL the child process is left orphaned and continues to run, while I am interested in termination.

First of all if someone sends you a SIGKILL it's game over, that is not a normal way to terminate processes.

But if there is no way around it you could let the child process monitor the parent through a kqueue mechanism and then act if the parent process is killed.
