Description

In terminate_process, SIGTERM is sent to the parent process only. This seems like a deliberate design choice given that the kill_process does send a SIGKILL to each child process. Is there a reason why SIGTERM is not also sent the to child processes?

For reference, I'm referring to the functions defined in the thermos helper.py file.
