What you are saying and the what the website is saying, while not explicitly contradictory, does not seem to be consistent.
Q. Will children still go through Advanced Imaging Technology?
A. Advanced Imaging Technology remains optional for all passengers. As part of this screening change, TSA will permit multiple attempts by passengers 12 and under to capture a clear image during advanced imaging technology screening to further reduce the need for pat-downs to resolve any alarms.

I think this bolded word here indicates parental permission and that it can be done multiple times by the parents' permissions. At least that's what I get from it.
