sure, just stop the watcher?
note, however, that I can't see your child exiting - did you forget to
call exit() or return? both parent and child will call ev_loop after starting
a watcher.
you also never call ev_fork - this is required after a fork if you want to
continue event handling in the child and parent.
but the answer is still to stop the watcher on end-of-file, or before, or
after, or anytime, when you do not want those events anymore.
