If you're not receiving app requests from your child's iPhone, ensure that Family Sharing and Ask to Buy are both enabled and correctly set up on both your and your child's devices. Check the Apple ID your child is using; it should be part of your family group. Also, verify that your child's device has an active internet connection and that there are no restrictions set up that might prevent sending requests. If these settings are correct and the issue persists, restarting both devices might help.
