thanks for this

function push_at_to_associative_array($array, $key, $new ){
        $keys  = array_keys( $array );
		$index = array_search( $key, $keys, true  );
        $pos   = false === $index ? count( $array ) : $index + 1;
        
        $array = array_slice($array, 0, $pos, true) + $new + array_slice($array, $pos, count($array) - 1, true);
        return $array;
    }

Use Case

$your_updated_orignal_parent_array = push_at_to_associative_array($your_orignal_parent_array, $orignal_parent_array_key, $new_child_single_or_multidimentional_array );

Thanks
