When a couple has a child, this child is a boy with probability 1/2 and a girl with probability
1/2, independent of the gender of previous children. A couple stops having children as soon as
they have 2 girls or 2 boys. Define the random variables
- G = the number of girls the couple has
and
- B = the number of boys the couple has.
Are $G$ and $B$ independent random variables?
