The sexy kid.
The sexy son hypothesis states that females may initially choose a trait because it improves the survival of their young, but once this preference has become widespread, females must continue to choose the trait, even if it becomes harmful. Those that do not will have sons that are unattractive to most females (since the preference is widespread) and so receive few matings.
Comment : - Probably that is why the moms and dads still make their sons run around for engineering degrees and MBBS. Well, these days, we also also the sexy daughter hypothesis. So, I combine and call it, sexy child hypothesis that seems to be true in most cases.
PS - The original "sexy son hypothesis" is a real hypothesis and not something I made up. :P
