Simply build a script that contains the logic to find each user based on what they are running or on their group or whatever your criteria is and kill (see man kill) their children and then the parent.

LOGIN(3) BSD Library Functions Manual LOGIN(3)
NAME
login, logout, logwtmp -- login utility functions (DEPRECATED)
SYNOPSIS
#include <util.h>
void
login(struct utmp *ut);
int
logout(const char *line);
void
logwtmp(const char *line, const char *name, const char *host);
DESCRIPTION
The login(), logout(), and logwtmp() functions are DEPRECATED; use pututxline(3) instead.
These functions operate on the database of current users in /var/run/utmpx and the system log file. Superuser permission is required.
The login() function updates the /var/run/utmpx files with user information contained in ut (after converting to a struct utmpx, as described
in pututxline(3)).
The logout() function removes the entry from /var/run/utmpx corresponding to the device line.
The logwtmp() function adds an entry to the system log file. Since login() will add the appropriate entry during a login, logwtmp() is usu-
ally used for logouts.
RETURN VALUES
logout() returns non-zero if it was able to find and delete an entry for line, and zero if there is no entry for line in /var/run/utmpx.
However, there is no error indication due to lack of permissions.
FILES
/dev/*
/var/run/utmpx
