Apps Installing on Organizers iPhone (not requesters iPad) after ask to buy is approved.

Hello!

I am the organizer for my 2 kids who have iPads. When one of my kids requests to buy an app, after I approve the request it downloads onto their device. However, when my other child requests to buy an app, after I approve it, the app proceeds to download to my iPhone and not my child’s device. I approve it and it takes me to the App Store on my phone and the only option I see is “get” on my iPhone. My child gets no option to download on his end, only to request. I know there must be an option of some setting clicked on that shouldn’t be but I literally cannot figure it out. All devices are up to date with the latest iOS version and we have all signed out and signed back into our accounts as well as shut down and turned all devices back on. For reference I do not have an iPhone 6, it’s a 13 and the kids have iPad minis 2022 version. Help!
