Notification in family sharing
Hello! I am not getting the notification that my child is asking to buy to be approved. Where do I go to turn that on and how will I see that notification?

Approve what kids buy with Ask to Buy - https://support.apple.com/HT201089 - Family Organizer receives requests by default, but another parent or guardian can be assigned permission.
If your parent or guardian is nearby, you can tap "approve it in person" and they can approve the purchase directly from your device.
If Ask to Buy isn't working - "Learn what to do if you don't see your Ask to Buy notifications, or if your child sees "Unable to Ask Permission" after asking your family group organizer to make a purchase."

See this December 2021 post by a Community Specialist for various things to check and try, as well as a way to contact apple is you still have problems. --> https://discussions.apple.com/thread/253488240
