What is the linking verb in where are the children?
In the sentence, there is no linking verb. The easy way to recognize a linking verb is that a linking verb acts as an equals sign, the object is a different form of the subject (Mary is my sister. Mary=sister); or the subject becomes the object (My feet got wet. feet->wet). In the sentence, 'Where are the children?' (the children are where), the place where the children are is not another form of the subject children.
Does a sentence containing a linking verb also has a subject complement?
Yes, a sentence with a linking verb will often have a subject complement. The subject complement renames or describes the subject and is connected to it by the linking verb.
