How to access child TreeViewItemAdv from a TreeViewItemAdv

I'm trying to create a selection tree. Whenever a button in a parent node is clicked, the children nodes should all be selected.
My problem is i can't find the containers of the children nodes (TreeViewItemAdv collection) from a parent TreeViewItemAdv

I can manually get a container by calling
ParentNode.ItemContainerGenerator.GetContainerFromItem(childData)

But there's another problem, if the ParentNode is collapsed, the child containers haven't been instantiated. Setting ParentNode.IsExpanded = true does not synchronously generate the item containers as I expected.

How do I solve this problem?
Thank you
