We know your kid can write. Maybe you can hire her to write the documentation for you? Maybe do some QA as well. She can then pay for her own school and deduct that from her income. Something like that.

You know as much as I would like to screw around the gray(grey) area for tax deductions, I really don’t want to get a call from the IRS… Especially if my kid or I ever plan of running for some vacant public office position… like one that hopefully Ted Lieu will lose….Then, I can get paid well to lie, pretend, and be a hypocrite for a living… Just kidding… Ok, not really.
