Search the forum, this comes up often but the jist is the 7 year 'rule' is now the best interests of child 'rule' and the UKVI sees that as meaning kids are adaptable, and can relocate back.

How old is the child that you brought into the country now, the other child you are referring to, was he/she born in the uk? If you want to apply, it's best you apply for all the family. However chances are the application will be refused as they may say you can continue your life outside the uk. If you are given in country right of appeal, there is a high chance of success.
