I don't think this is the correct approach. Something more complex needs to be defined. You may want to keep children of a parent style but restructure.

imo, if the user wants to keep them, they first need to change the parent.

if we really want to make it safer / more comfortable, i would suggest:

- to add the drag and drop in the list and let to move the children to be interactively moved to another parent.
- if somebody wrongly deletes a style with its children, that a case for undo.
