I agree with you on "in the case of children."
But does 'approval" mean about the same as "consent" in the base sentence?

Consent is more deliberate. It expressly gives permission. You can quietly or tacitly approve without giving consent.
As for the rest, I'd omit that opening entirely. Children, however, require the consent of a parent.
