Consider following example:

<persons>
   <person id=”1″>
      <name>Tarzan</name>
   </person>
   <person id=”2″>
      <name>Jane</name>
   </person>
</persons>

person with id: 1 is a sibling to person with id: 2
person is a child of persons and a parent of name

id is an attribute
persons, person and name are elements

So:
person is a “Child Field Element” of persons
name is a “Child Field Element” of person
id is a “Child Field Attribute” of person

Hope that’s clear enough.
