how can I say sons and daughters in one word?
I'd like to know if there is a word that express that a person has sons and daughters (adults included)
in the same way siblings (brothers and sisters ) and parents ( mon and dad ) do.
example:
My _______________ came to visit me on chritsmas!!
(sons and daughters)
