Hmmm.  On my TNG website, the "child relationship" seems to show properly as 
the "Relationship"  under a parent on a child's Personal Information page

Subject: [LegacyUG] Issue with Gedcom Export of Child Status Hi, A user 
recently reported to me that Child Status attributes, such as Stillborn, Twin, 
Adopted, etc., were not being imported into his TNG web site from a Legacy 
Gedcom file. Analysis shows that Legacy is exporting the Child Status in 
Gedcom, and can import those Legacy Gedcoms properly back into in Legacy. But 
the TNG web publishing application that many Legacy users use does not import 
the tag that Legacy uses to report Child Status. (Legacy currently exports it 
as an attribute of the child in the family structure.) --> IE, none of your 
Child Status attributes have EVER been importedinto TNG. Maybe this OK with 
you? Maybe you have never noticed? Further analysis shows that Legacy's 
approach to Child Status seems to be unique among the major genealogy products 
and, although the best (as far as I am concerned) actually, may not be optimal. 
In reality, there is no consistency in how various products implement Child 
Status attributes, if they handle them at all. Consequently, the TNG developer 
has less incentive to provide the fix for this mis-match with Legacy. As this 
has been a problem for 10+ years with, supposedly, only myself and one other 
user expressing concern over this to Legacy, I would like to know if other 
users have seen this and would like to see this resolved. Getting something 
resolved - and quickly - will require having many folks second that this is an 
issue for them. --> Let me emphasize that this is not a Legacy bug. Legacy 
itself works fine. This is a mis-match in the interface between two products. 
Also, do you know of any other programs where the current Child Status 
implementation is causing a problem from Legacy Gedcoms? Thanks for listening,
