Ask the child to show you their messages. It is not possible to remotely monitor a child's messages. You have to view them on a device that is signed into the child's account—usually the child's device itself. To ensure you have access to the child's device you should configure parental controls (Screen Time) with a passcode that only you know, and select options to prevent your child from changing the account information and device access passcode. The procedure for doing this is outlined in the support article:
Use parental controls on your child's iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
Passcode Changes: Prevent changes to the passcode
Account Changes: Prevent account changes in Accounts & Passwords
Typically you might do this as part of initial account configuration when setting up a child's account. Create an Apple ID for your child - Apple Support
