Hello ramy80,
Recently there's been an issue with ATB notifications not arriving at certain devices, so I'll start with an undocumented possible solution mentioned by several people where editing the name of a mobile device worked for them:
Settings > General > About > Name
Change the name
Then "Done" and retry.
Otherwise If Ask to Buy isn't working, read the suggestions in the document: If Ask to Buy isn't working - Apple Support about looking for the request in Messages or Notification Center.
Make sure notifications haven't been disabled. This article discusses notifications: Use notifications on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
and this one Change notification settings on iPhone - Apple Support
Make sure the software is up to date on all devices involved.
Sometimes it helps to have the devices involved take a fresh look at settings:
● Try signing out of accounts and back in again.
Sign out of iCloud on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Apple TV, or Mac - Apple Support
Sign in with your Apple ID - Apple Support
● Restarting is a simple step that can resolve many unexpected behaviors.
iPhone: Restart your iPhone - Apple Support then choose your model.
iPad: Restart your iPad - Apple Support

If a problem persists, particularly over several days, try contacting Apple for assistance:
