The datatemplate for the ListBox is set dynamically by XamlReader.Load. I am subscribing to Checked event by getting the CheckBox object using VisualTreeHelper.GetChild. This event is not getting fired

Code Snippet

    public void SetListBox()
    {
        lstBox.ItemTemplate =
        XamlReader.Load(@"<DataTemplate xmlns='http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation' xmlns:x='http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml' x:Name=""DropDownTemplate""><Grid x:Name='RootElement'><CheckBox  x:Name='ChkList' Content='{Binding " + TextContent + "}' IsChecked='{Binding " + BindValue + ", Mode=TwoWay}'/></Grid></DataTemplate>") as DataTemplate;

        CheckBox  chkList = (CheckBox)GetChildObject((DependencyObject)_lstBox.ItemTemplate.LoadContent(), "ChkList");

        chkList.Checked += delegate { SetSelectedItemText(); };
    }

    public CheckBox GetChildObject(DependencyObject obj, string name) 
    {
        for (int i = 0; i < VisualTreeHelper.GetChildrenCount(obj); i++)
        {
            DependencyObject c = VisualTreeHelper.GetChild(obj, i);
            if (c.GetType().Equals(typeof(CheckBox)) && (String.IsNullOrEmpty(name) || ((FrameworkElement)c).Name == name))
            {
                return (CheckBox)c;
            }
            DependencyObject gc = GetChildObject(c, name);
            if (gc != null)
                return (CheckBox)gc;
        }
        return null;
    }

How to handle the checked event? Please help
