If I caused my children to miss Mass do they need to confess?

I did not go to Mass last Sunday, and I plan to go to confession before receiving Communion. Because I did not go, they did not go. My children are young but old enough to receive Communion. Do they need to confess before receiving Communion? Thank you.
 
Until they are older teenagers children have no other way to get to Mass except through their parents so they do not personally sin when their parents fail to take them to Mass. They do however miss out on the grace of communion and deepening their relationship with God, but it cannot be accounted as a personal sin since they had no control over the situation.
