If my second cousin and I both have children of the same age, what relation are they?

Third cousins

Yes, third cousins.

They are third cousins to each other, and you and they are second cousins once removed. The removal relates to generation.

The children are third cousins.

Cousins explained

Everyone is right, third cousins. Their age is irrelevant, they would still be 3rd cousins even if there was a large age gap between them.
