A half-sibling is considered a relative of the second degree because they share one biological parent but not both. In kinship terminology, the first degree includes parents and children, while the second degree encompasses siblings, half-siblings, grandparents, and grandchildren. Since half-siblings share a significant familial connection, they fall into this category, highlighting their closer relationship compared to more distant relatives.
