Comments.Text: Maybe I'm misunderstanding the question but can't you just give the child 2 email addresses and mark the one that's the same as the parent as primary?

  * Parent's emails should be visible from the child's "Relationships" tab without actually clicking through to the parent.
  * Alternatively, the [Relationship Block](https://github.com/eileenmcnaughton/org.wikimedia.relationshipblock) extension allows you to put the parent's info on the summary screen. Not ideal, but it saves you a click.
