How to control checkbox checked attribute from different checkbox?

I see an issue that I can't fix it properly. When I click the checkbox any item among 9 items the groupSelect function not getting unchecked or checked properly. I have tried to remove the attribute of the checkbox items but still not execute the groupSelect function checkbox. whenever I try to checked or unchecked the item before "Racial or Ethnic Group " checkbox then I see the "Racial or Ethnic Group " checkbox not execute properly. Please see the snippet,

function groupSelect(val) {
  let checkInput = $(val).parent().next().find('input[type="checkbox"]')
  if (val.checked == true) {
    $(() => {
      checkInput.attr('checked', 'true')
    })
  } else {
    checkInput.removeAttr('checked');
  }
}
