Child Health Problem

Vera Said:

long term health problem to child, father on anabolicsteroids?

We Answered:

Well, considering that if a guy is on steroids long enough it might not be a problem and it can make a guy sterile. It shrinks the testicles and kills off sperm. I'm not sure about the effects on a child. Do an internet search or ask your doctor.

Suzanne Said:

How can I explain the statement " The immigrant is the father of a young child, and he has a health problem.

We Answered:

I agree wholeheartedly with the student. And I can see you are not an English major or teacher by how you spelled "except" instead of "accept." The pronoun "he" in the second clause of the sentence IS ambiguous in its referent. The statement should be changed to read "The immigrant, who has a health problem, is the father of a young child." if it is indeed the father who is sick. If it is the child it should read, "The immigrant is the father of a young child who has a health problem." That would eliminate the ambiguity.
