Sec. 3. If:
(1) a statement made knowingly and voluntarily cannot be admitted as evidence against a child because of failure to meet the requirements of section 1 of this chapter; and
(2) the child testifies in the child's own defense;
the statement may be admitted to impeach the child as a witness in the same manner as evidence of any other prior inconsistent statement can be admitted for impeachment.
