Hypothetically, my daughter is a defense attorney. My son is dating a woman who, while driving under the influence, kills my cousin’s 16-year-old daughter and her 2-year-old child. My son asks his sister to defend his girlfriend—would that be legally allowed? For context, my cousin’s father is my mother’s brother.
Why “daughter” and “child” then? Not daughters, age 16 and 2, or daughter and son? If it were the reverse I’d assume the teen was nonbinary but it’s unusual in a toddler
Just an awkward wording.
