i want that ... all the child process and even the same script should be killed
That shell is almost certainly not running in interactive mode. If that's so, then all of its children and its children's children and so forth are running in the same process group. You can consult with ps to verify (your ps output above does not include pgrp info, as far as I can tell).
From within any process in a process group, kill 0 signals all cohorts, whether they be parent, child, grandchild, sibling, cousin, etc.
Is there any build in command in unix to kill all the child process for a given process ID ? If any one has script or command, please let me know.
Thanks

protect
PROTECT(1) BSD General Commands Manual PROTECT(1)NAME
protect -- protect processes from being killed when swap space is exhausted
SYNOPSIS
protect [-i] command
protect [-cdi] -g pgrp | -p pid
DESCRIPTION
The protect command is used to mark processes as protected. The kernel does not kill protected processes when swap space is exhausted. Note
that this protected state is not inherited by child processes by default.
The options are:
-c Remove protection from the specified processes.
-d Apply the operation to all current children of the specified processes.
-i Apply the operation to all future children of the specified processes.
-g pgrp Apply the operation to all processes in the specified process group.
-p pid Apply the operation to the specified process.
command Execute command as a protected process.
Note that only one of the -p or -g flags may be specified when adjusting the state of existing processes.
EXIT STATUS
The protect utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
EXAMPLES
Mark the Xorg server as protected:
pgrep Xorg | xargs protect -p
Protect all ssh sessions and their child processes:
pgrep sshd | xargs protect -dip
Remove protection from all current and future processes:
protect -cdi -p 1
SEE ALSO procctl(2)BUGS
If you protect a runaway process that allocates all memory the system will deadlock.
