Is it possible to issue a Voucher only for a child? Parents do not need to obtain a visa - it already exists or is not required.

If you are going to Russia with a child, and only he needs a visa, but you do not need or already have one, then a Voucher issued only for a child causes a lot of questions and distrust in the Consulate. The fact is that the Voucher, as it were, “confirms” the purchase of a tour to Russia. And if you are applying for a tourist visa for a child, then you need to explain which of the adults the child is going on tour with. And also attach a confirmation of the purchase of the tour to this adult. In addition, you must attach an explanation why a visa is not requested for an adult.
Conclusion: A voucher issued only for a child can lead to a refusal of a visa. You will not explain at the consulate that he is actually going to visit relatives, and not even for tourism at all, and the Voucher is just that - to obtain a visa and nothing more.
