I'm not sure if I grasp the spirit of your intention, but how do you
feel about this:

   (setq L (cons))
   (set L (cons))
   (set (nth L 1 1) 'parent)
   (con (nth L 1 1) (cons))
   (set (nth L 1 2) (cons))
   (set (nth L 1 2 1) 'child)
   (con (nth L 1 2 1) (cons))
   (set (nth L 1 2 2) 'child)

   L
   -> ((parent (child child)))
