testing child elements for text

I need to see if an element has children that contain data....

	<InsClaimsAdverseClaimantContact Id="1-16J9D">
					<ListOfAmicaContactServiceProvider/>
					<ListOfInsClaimsAdverseClaimant/>
	</InsClaimsAdverseClaimantContact>

What is a way to test if the parent element has any children that actually
have data?  I will only process the parent if it has children that contain
data.

Mike
