I am having trouble wrapping my head around something but let me first describe my setup:

I don't see code from your post. So I am guessing your code structure as a start. First build your dialog with a listener and process setPositiveButton() and the onClick event.

Code suggestion:

public class ChildrenSpecificationFragment extends Fragment {
...

public void passData(Object obj) {
}

   class SubChildFragment extends Fragment {
       AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(thisContext);
       ...
       // Add the buttons...
       builder.setPositiveButton("Save", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
           public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int id) {
           ...
           passData(Object obj);   // pass data to the outer fragment class

Notes:

• SubChildFragment, for example, is an inner class derived from Fragment. It can call the public method passData() in the outer class ChildrenSpecificationFragment for passing any data you need.
• I am using an inner class because I think this is what you meant in your diagram by

Add child full-screen fragment

• This coding technique is easier than starting a new Activity and Intent.

For showing fullscreen dialogs, there is a good Google webpage I think @ Dialog - Fullscreen. Search text for "Showing a Dialog Fullscreen or as an Embedded Fragment".
