I don't follow that, hueco_tanks.
The probability of anyone having a male versus female child is 1:1, ruling out any other influences such as the health of the mother.
So the odds that your friend has only two male children is 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4, right?
And the base probability that the unknown child is a boy is 1/2.
Where does 1/3 come in?
