The parent option is ignored in the delete api (rest only) and for delete actions in the bulk api.
This bug occurs in the case that the _parent field enabled in a mapping, and only the parent option is used. This results in a situation that documents are deleted even if the specified parent value is incorrect.

In the case that routing is required and no routing is specified for a delete request, then the delete is executed on all shards. The also applies when the _parent field is configured on a mapping for a type the delete is executed. The parent id also acts as a routing value.

Current work around is to not use the parent option and just use the routing option, which has the same effect.

Test case:

curl -XDELETE 'localhost:9200/test%2A?pretty=1'

curl -XPUT 'localhost:9200/test_1?pretty=1'  -d '
{
   "mappings" : {
      "test" : {
         "_parent" : {
            "type" : "foo"
         }
      }
   }
}
'

curl -XGET 'localhost:9200/_cluster/health?wait_for_status=yellow&pretty=1'

curl -XPUT 'localhost:9200/test_1/test/1?parent=3&pretty=1'  -d '
{
   "foo" : "bar"
}
'

curl -XDELETE 'localhost:9200/test_1/test/1?parent=2&pretty=1'

# {
#    "ok" : true,
#    "_index" : "test_1",
#    "_id" : "1",
#    "_type" : "test",
#    "found" : true,
#    "_version" : 2
# }

curl -XDELETE 'localhost:9200/test_1/test/1?parent=3&pretty=1'

# {
#    "ok" : true,
#    "_index" : "test_1",
#    "_id" : "1",
#    "_type" : "test",
#    "found" : false,
#    "_version" : 0
# }
