Don't give them purchase privileges and ask them to use gift cards to replenish their balance, then the cost will be deducted from their accumulated credit.

iTunes Family Sharing is primarily designed for one adult (the Family Organizer), with one or more financially dependent kids. If you want to use it for other situations, you will have to live with the restrictions.
If you trust the other members, ask them to always maintain a credit balance.
If you do not trust them to do that, then you can disband the Family Sharing group, per this document:

Yes. Just make sure it is an iTunes gift card, and not some kind of credit card or debit card.
