 <xsl:when test="name()[@type='father']">

That is a syntax error as name() returns a string, the name of the
current node, and you can not apply [....] predicates to a string, only
a node set.

You want to test if the current node has a type attribute with value
father, so that's just

 <xsl:when test="@type='father'">
