It depends on own preference, some people apply for it as it never expires, some people apply for it as they don’t want to apply for or renew passports unless required. If i were you, i wouldn’t waste ~$1200 on that.

Regarding evidence of your child living with you, you don’t need to worry about it. Your child, when in the US, is self understood to be living with you, unless it’s a divorce case.

U.S. Citizenship through Naturalization of a Parent
