No - you do not have to file. The 1099-SSA-SM forms for your children are never reported by your children if that is their only income. And it is never reported on your tax return.
What if the child also received form 1099-B with capital gains of $3082.28?
Does the child need to file? Or add to parents return?
Yes, the child would need to file. It may be possible to add to the parent's return in certain circumstances.
When unearned income such as capital gains exceeds $2,200, the parent's tax rate is applied to amounts exceeding $2,200.
