Child removes node from response when the provided object is an empty array

Anyone ? 🙂

The same problem occurs when a child is defined, but the given object ends up to be nil: the key will not be present in the response because of the early return mentioned above.

My suggestion would be to omit the key when the condition is not met (second branch of the conditional mentioned above). If the condition is met, an empty array or null value is returned if necessary.

Another - backward compatible solution - would be to allow a default value. (Although we would prefer a change as it makes an api more predictable and adds less burden on the developer who may forget to add a default on every child).

I can submit a PR if you want such a change.
