I would like to make some user profile fields dependent on other user profile fields, for example, right now I have parent 1, a whole bunch of contact info fields, parent 2, a whole bunch of the same fields, child 1 - many fields, child 2 - many fields, child 3

• many fields. I'd like to make it so the user could check a box if

all the info is the same for each person, or if there is only one person, and not have to put "N/A" in over and over.

Would this require some other module, or custom field types, or php codiig?

This is not something that profile module will provide for. There is a module that supposedly provides for this in nodes, which could work if you set up your site so that your user profiles are nodes (there are a handful of modules that are designed to do that part). The module in question is http://drupal.org/project/dependantDropdown ... but I have no idea as to how well it works or whether the maintainer will keep it up to date. It hasn't been updated since December.
