There is causal and acausal components. Surely, the parent can causally program (teach) the child to do what he wants. But when he decide to conceive the child, he already did the biggest part of the contract.
A better example would be: I create a political party, and expect that if it win, it will call a street at my name and pay me a lot. The difference with service is that if I will not start this project, it will never exist at all. I may instead create some different project and get different benefits from it. So from my side it is a trade with an entity which is only possible at the moment of the trade.
I am no expert but how can that be an acausal trade? It’s more like an investment by the parent.

People don’t look after their aged parents in order to shape the past. They do it in response to the past.
Suppose I pay for some service that I am supposed to receive in the future, and then in the future I receive it. Is that an “acausal trade”?
