Ok, simplest option, i.e. no code, is a Process on each child object, fired when created or updated, Opportunity__c (lookup or master) is not null, update related object (Opportunity__c>>Custom_Last_Modified__c.
This would update the field on Opportunity each time one of the records is updated.
Other option is an Apex helper class and a trigger on each object to call the class, passing in the sObject variables.
I'd go for option 1 for a future perspective.
