what is showing in your functions file for your child theme?
Child theme inherits all the functionality and styling of it’s parent theme. If you are using child theme and a theme update is applied your changes won’t be lost or overwitten
You can quickly create child theme for any theme, just follow the steps given below:
1. Create a folder and name it exactly your theme name; append -child in the name. e.g. creating child theme for twentysixteen theme would be called twentysixteen-child this folder should sit beside parent theme under wp-content/themes/
2. Your child theme should have three files –
- style.css
- functions.php
- screenshot.png
3. In functions.php file you can override parent theme functions.
4. In style.css file you can override parent theme CSS code.
Your child theme should have all above 3 files. Please check your child theme functions.php file .
For more info have a look over below thread- https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes

please look over: https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes
for guidance to get a clean start on your child theme
after you get the child theme operating properly with just the basic code, then you can add all of the extra stuff to further customize.
