Does the curse return to the parents if their children curse other people's children?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: We know the consequence of cursing, and that it returns to the parents of the one who curses other people's children. But he says: May Allah reward you. We know the consequence of cursing, and that it returns to the parents of the one who curses other people's children, but we disavow to Allah the cursing of some of our children. Do we sin, and does the curse return to us, even though we are directing them and reprimanding them?

Answer:
The curse returns to the one who utters it if it is directed at someone who does not deserve it; it returns to the one who uttered it, not to the parents. But in the hadith
That a man, ifأن الرجل إذا
if a person curses my father, then this man who was cursed curses my father, this one who cursed, so it becomes a cause, it becomes a cause for cursing his parents. Yes.
