How to check if children cells are blank?
When the following formula is applied
=IF(COUNTIF(CHILDREN(), OR(@cell = "Yes", @cell = "N/A")) = COUNT(CHILDREN()), "Yes", "No")
it results false positive values since blank children cells are counted.
There is ISBLANK() function. How to use it to apply the above formula only if all children cells are not blank?

Instead of using ISBLANK()
Change
COUNT(CHILDREN())
to
COUNTIFS(CHILDREN(), OR(@cell <> "", @cell = ""))
This worked for me.
