Well, it's Python, so you can do all sorts of things, some of them good 
ideas, some bad...

Like Alan says, the question as asked doesn't really make a lot of sense 
to us, but the way classes (really, user-defined types) work does give 
you a lot of flexibility.  Some people feel like we should express it as 
code reuse at a sophisticated level: if you see a method in another 
class that you'd like to use for your own class, you can inherit that 
method by listing the class in your definition.  Or, if you don't want 
to do so, you write your own method.  So while I wouldn't call it 
reverse inheritance, you as author of your class have all the control of 
what you do and don't take from other classes, and maybe it's not 
entirely accurate to call them child and parent classes because of that?
