Abstract: A network device receives first signaling from a first parent device that assigns a first task for completion by a first child, and includes a first task allotment designated by the parent for the first child's completion of the first task. The network device receives second signaling, from a first child device, indicating that the first child has completed the first task. The network device sends third signaling to the first parent device requesting approval of the completion of the first task, and receives, responsive to the third signaling, an indicator of an approval, or a rejection, from the first parent device. The network device initiates provision of the first task allotment to the first child based on receipt of the indicator of approval from the first parent device.
