These two settings don't make much sense

          (child-frame (make-frame   '((visible . 0)
                                       (undecorated . 0)

For the moment let's stick to the simpler

(defvar child-frame nil)

(defun make-child-frame ()
  (interactive)
  (setq child-frame
        (make-frame `((parent-frame . ,(selected-frame))
                      (left . 10)
                      (top . 10)
                      (width . 20)
                      (height . 10))))
  (select-frame-set-input-focus child-frame))

(defun delete-child-frame ()
  (interactive)
  (delete-frame child-frame))

If you call 'make-child-frame', does the child frame get selected?

If not, we have to try some workaround, maybe a (sit-for 0) before the
'select-frame-set-input-focus' call.
