Half siblings share genes from one parent. Step siblings are usually not biologically realted to each other; rather their parents married each other after they were born. If a mother had two children (Child A and Child B) in her first relationship and a father had two children (Child C and Child D) in his first relationship, and together had two children (Child E and Child F), the realtionship would go as follows. Child A : Full-B; Step-C,D; Half-E,F Child B : Full-A; Step-C,D; Half-E,F Child C : Full-D; Step-A,B: Half-E,F Child D : Full-C; Step-A,B; Half-E,F Child E : Full-F; Half-A,B,C,D Child F : Full-E; Half-A,B,C,D
