How can I stop getChildren() being recursive?

$categories = Mage::getModel('catalog/category')->load(2)->getChildren();

I only want to know the immediate children of a category, not it’s grandchildren.

    Use addLevelFilter :-

    $categories = Mage::getModel('catalog/category')
                    ->getCollection()
                    ->addAttributeToSelect('*')
                    ->addIsActiveFilter()
                    ->addLevelFilter(1)
                    ->addOrderField('name');

    For more:- Get list of all categories

    Hope this helps.
