You can certainly petition them.

 

They will need to complete the ban before a visa can be issued.

Isn't Form I-601 approval technically a possibility? https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/forms/i-601instr-pc.pdf "Explain the extreme hardship your qualifying relative (for example, U.S. citizen or LPR spouse, parent, or child) would experience if you were refused admission to the United States."

 

Although probably more difficult to show the "Extreme Hardship" of a self-sufficient adult child.

The child can petition a parent but the child is not a qualifying relative to file a waiver.

On the other hand, if a person subject to inadmissibility wishes to apply to become a lawful permanent resident (LPR, or “green card” holder), one generally can obtain a waiver only by filing form I-601 showing “extreme hardship” that will be suffered by the foreign national’s qualifying U.S. citizen (USC) or LPR relative/s. Generally, the qualifying relative must be a USC or LPR spouse or parent. For limited grounds of inadmissibility, a USC or LPR child may also be used. Regardless of the qualifying relative, the focus has to be to demonstrate the extreme hardship that will be experienced by the relative, and not the impact it would have on the foreign national who is requesting the benefit.

You're right, the form covers different types of inadmissibility. For unlawful presence, OP is not a Qualifying relative; INA 212(a)(9)(B)(v): "The Attorney General has sole discretion to waive clause (i) in the case of an immigrant who is the spouse or son or daughter of a United States citizen or of an alien lawfully admitted for permanent residence, if it is established to the satisfaction of the Attorney General that the refusal of admission to such immigrant alien would result in extreme hardship to the citizen or lawfully resident spouse or parent of such alien. No court shall have jurisdiction to review a decision or action by the Attorney General regarding a waiver under this clause."
