Read Place Children

Read the children of a place. It returns the direct children (those place descriptions that are in the jurisdiction) of a given place description. It is generally used for traversing from parent jurisdiction to child jurisdiction where no additional flexibility is needed or wanted. For example, if there's a need to filter on type, year, etc. this resource should not be used. Using this resource to search for children of a place (/description/1/children) will return the same results as searching for everything with the parentId of place "1" (/search?q=+parentId:1).
