Well, that solves it, then. :)

Yep, it would affect all rules that could match on those facts.
You could have a control fact per child rule that could potentially match. The child rule
would include an existence check for that fact in it's conditions. The parent rule
would retract the fact to prevent the child rule from firing.
A bit more clunky than the custom agenda filter approach, but:
1) I haven't tested the custom agenda filter thing, so I'm just guessing it'd
work. (I'm pretty sure it would, though.)
2) It would be more portable across other rule engines. (If that's important to you.)

Thanks Greg and Joe.
I think i should have mentioned this before.
I can also have other parent rule node in the tree
structure which tests
against same fact. Each parent rule node should only
control its child rule
nodes, but not other parent rule node and child rule node.
If I do retract, won't it affect other parent rule
node?
