App Request Notification

My phone used to get notified of the app requests from my 2 boys but now it doesn't. I have to go on my MacBook to accept the app requests. And now tonight THAT even stopped working! How do I get the notifications on my phone again?

MacBook Pro 13″, OS X 10.10

"Everything is set up as it should be. It’s something in the notifications. First my phone stopped notifying me but my MacBook still did, but now that stopped all of a sudden too."
