The solution is just unload child product in SQL query in administrator/components/com_virtuemart/models/product.php but if you modify query string, backend will unload child product too. So i show you below:

File 1: administrator/components/com_virtuemart/models/product.php

somewhere near line 189 (function sortSearchListQuery)

change
function sortSearchListQuery ($onlyPublished = TRUE, $virtuemart_category_id = FALSE, $group = FALSE, $nbrReturnProducts = FALSE)
to
function sortSearchListQuery ($onlyPublished = TRUE, $virtuemart_category_id = FALSE, $group = FALSE, $nbrReturnProducts = FALSE, $noChildProduct =  FALSE)

some where near line 486

change

if (count ($where) > 0) {
         $whereString = ' WHERE (' . implode (' AND ', $where) . ') ';
      }
      else {
         $whereString = '';
      }
to
if (count ($where) > 0) {
         //ngockhoavo hide child products with condition $noChildProduct
         if($noChildProduct){
            $whereString = ' WHERE (' . implode (' AND ', $where) . ') AND product_parent_id=0 ';
         }else{
            $whereString = ' WHERE (' . implode (' AND ', $where) . ') ';
         }
      }
      else {
         $whereString = '';
      }

somewhere near line 1161 function getProductsInCategory

change
public function getProductsInCategory ($categoryId) {
$ids = $this->sortSearchListQuery (TRUE, $categoryId);
$this->products = $this->getProducts ($ids);
return $this->products;
}
to
public function getProductsInCategory ($categoryId,$noChildProduct = FALSE) {
//ngockhoavo custom this function to load no child product
//$ids = $this->sortSearchListQuery (TRUE, $categoryId);
$ids = $this->sortSearchListQuery (TRUE, $categoryId,null,null,$noChildProduct);
$this->products = $this->getProducts ($ids);
return $this->products;
}

file 2: components/com_virtuemart/views/category/view.html.php

somewhere near line 174
change
$products = $productModel->getProductsInCategory($categoryId);
to
$products = $productModel->getProductsInCategory($categoryId,true);

Done

If you want to show child product again you should change $products = $productModel->getProductsInCategory($categoryId,false); again.

*Unload child product at virtuemart frontpage
