Parent/Children Conditions

I'm new to Smartsheet and am trying to set up a regular monthly task list. I have certain "parent" tasks, and under each are a few sub-tasks or "Children". I have a checkbox to show that each line is complete. Is there a formula in the Parent row to check the box if all boxes are checked in the Children rows?

SLFoster,
This is what I use:
=IF(COUNT(CHILDREN()) = COUNTIF(CHILDREN(), 1), 1, 0)
The first part
COUNT(CHILDREN())
counts all the check boxes.
The second part
COUNTIF(CHILDREN(),1)
counts only the checked ones.
If they are equal, they are all checked.
