On Deceased Child with Verified Death, Please Close all Options for Marriage and Child attachments
I'd attach a screenshot with markups but y'all have trees growing out of deceased children and that's an easy close.
Child confirmed birth, confirmed death, close all options for attachment of spouse or child fields.
Major save.

Many of us have been there ...
.
'Yes', it certainly would be nice ...
.
But ...
That said ...
.
'FamilySearch' should NOT do that ...
.
Like it or not, YOU could be WRONG ... 'Seriously' ... it has happened.
.
[ I have had to 'resurrect' a Child (or, two) that was marked as "Deceased", who in fact, lived to adulthood; got Married; and, had Children ]
.
Too MANY Users/Patrons would NOT do the "Research" (ie. checking); and, just 'gloss over'/accept what has been entered.
.
But, 'Yes' many DO NOT look; and, go ahead; and, add a Spouse and Children to a Child who died young ...
.
There are OTHER options ...
.
Firstly ...
.
Other Information Section ...
▬ + Add Information
▬ ▬ Facts
▬ ▬ ▬ No Couple Relationships
▬ ▬ ▬ No Children
Add a "Reason".
.
That 'throws up' an indicator (ie. Warning / Error Message) that, both, a NO, Couple Relationship; and, Children, FACT(s) has(/have) already been ADDED to that individual/person; and, you CANNOT proceed, unless you "Remove" that FACT.
.
Here is a "Knowledge Article" in 'FamilySearch'
.
How do I indicate that a person in Family Tree had no children or was never in a relationship?
.
Secondly ...
.
Copious "Notes" EVERYWHERE ...
.
▬ Life Sketch;
▬ Other Information section
▬ ▬ Facts
▬ ▬ ▬ + Custom Fact
▬ Collaborate
... [ BOTH ]
▬ ▬ Notes
▬ ▬ Discussions
.
It can be the SAME or similar "Note" in ALL of the above.
.
That is what I do ... in EVERY case ...
.
IF, a User/Patron "Misses" ALL that; THEN, there is NO hope (for them) ...
.
Oh, and, I add then to my "Watch" List ... oops ... sorry ... those I "Follow" ...
.
Just my thoughts.
