context in nested serializers django rest framework

Ok i found a working solution. I replaced the ChildSerializer assignment in the Parent class with a SerializerMethodField which adds the context. This is then passed to the get_fields method in my CustomModelSerializer:

class ChildSerializer(CustomModelSerializer):
    class Meta:
        fields = ('c_name', )
        model = Child


class ParentSerializer(CustomModelSerializer):

    child = serializers.SerializerMethodField('get_child_serializer')

    class Meta:
        model = Parent
        fields = ('p_name', 'child')

    def get_child_serializer(self, obj):
        serializer_context = {'request': self.context.get('request') }
        children = Child.objects.all().filter(parent=obj)
        serializer = ChildSerializer(children, many=True, context=serializer_context)
        return serializer.data

and in my CustomModelSerializer:

class CustomModelSerializer(rest_serializer_classes.HyperlinkedModelSerializer):

    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        """
            Make sure a user is coupled to the serializer (needed for permissions)
        """
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        if not self.context:
            self._context = getattr(self.Meta, 'context', {})
        try:
            self.user = self.context['request'].user
        except KeyError:
            self.user = None


    def get_fields(self):
        ret = OrderedDict()

        if not self.user:
            print("No user associated with object")
            return ret

        fields = super().get_fields()

        # Bypass permission if superuser
        if self.user.is_superuser:
            return fields

        for f in fields:
            if has_right(self.user, self.Meta.model.__name__.lower(), f, "read"):
                ret[f] = fields[f]

        return ret

This seems to work fine, and fields of the child are discarded in the serializer when i either revoke read-rights on Child.c_name or on Parent.child

If you can not change the nature of you child serializer, as in @Kirill Cherepanov and @Robin van Leeuwen answers, a light but not full-integrated solution would be to manually pass the context in __init__() function :

class ChildSerializer(CustomModelSerializer):
    class Meta:
        fields = ('c_name', )
        model = Child


class ParentSerializer(CustomModelSerializer):

    child = ChildSerializer(many=True, read_only=True)

    class Meta:
        model = Parent
        fields = ('p_name', 'child')

    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        # We pass the "upper serializer" context to the "nested one"
        self.fields['child'].context.update(self.context)
