Merging status

Merging status

Dear Team,
 
Please help me to resolve the issue of merging the ticket!!
 
If the parent ticket is resolved status and child ticket is in the open status, if we merge the 2 ticket the status will be resolved . But we need it in the open status . How is that possible?
 
 
Thank you for the help in advance!
 
Regards
Anujitha
