The urban dictionary gives a citation from 2019 of huperchild. Woperchild is cited from 2005.
I wish it to be known that huperchild was invented by Lambert Meertens back in 1986 at the CWI. Unfortunately we did not think to publish this on the incipient Internet (still lots of Usenet, UUCP and a few ARPANET nodes) and stake the claim.
Lambert was musing about the politically correct way of saying human. So we have the progression:
human →huperson → huperchild
Similarly for woperchild:
woman →woperson → woperchild
