This answer is incorrect. There is a 1/4 chance that both children are boys, and each child has 1/2 chance of being borne a boy, regardless of what day his sibling was or will be borne on. The program arrives at the probability of 13/27 by excluding the possibility that both children might be borne on tuesday and both might be boys.
