In most of the languages child classes can inherit from more than one parent classes (C++, Java).

In PHP it is not impossible at the moment, as far as I know.
A proposed syntax would be (as in other languages):

class childClass extends parClass1, parClass2 {

}

Obviously, a number of questions may occur, for example, constructors cannot be called automatically in this case, so I suppose this is not a trivial problem.

Congratulations with the 20000th entry :)
Anyway, PHP has aggregation for this: http://php.net/aggregate , and this is the method we chose to implement things like 'multiple inheritence'.
