1Opinion of the Court
PREGERSON, Circuit Judge:
Gregorio Pedro Montero-Hernandez and Hector Montero-Martinez (Petitioners) seek review of a final order of removal issued by the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA). The BIA determined that Petitioners were statutorily ineligible for cancellation of removal as non-permanent residents under 8 U.S.C. § 1229b(b)(l) because neither had a qualifying relative for the purposes of § 1229b(b)(l)(D). We deny the' petition because Petitioners’ argument that Montero-Hernandez’s adult daughter qualifies as a “child” for the purposes of § 1229b(b)(l)(D) is without merit.
