Ask to buy not working and can’t disable

kids are trying to download apps for their Christmas presents, but I had Ask To Buy enabled on their devices, and I’m not getting any of the ask requests on my phone or iPad (I usually do get them). I then turned off ask to buy on their accounts, but it’s still making them Ask when they try to download new apps, and I still don’t get the Ask notifications to approve.

iPad 2, iOS 9

See if anything here helps.


Family Sharing -  Ask to Buy - Get Help.     


Have the kids tried signing out of iCloud, restarting their devices, and then signing back in to see if that helps? Have you done the same thing?
