Python does not (at least, should not) run differently as a child or as
a parent. As a matter of fact, any uncaught exception will indeed print
a traceback (which is very useful for e.g. debug purposes). If you don't
want such tracebacks, you can capture stderr in the calling process.

Also, it would be better if you explained your actual case, rather than
complain about specific behaviour.
