 The "bp_xprofile_field_get_children" filter is not called if there are no
 children found in the SQL query in row 750 of /buddypress/bp-xprofile/bp-
 xprofile-classes.php, in the "get_children" function. Instead false is
 immediately returned.

 This means that if you want to add in children through a custom filter,
 there have to be dummy children present in the database.

 A use case for this might be a field which allows you to select a country.
 Rather than add each individual country as a selection option, which would
 take a long time, we could instead add them through a filter in a plugin.
