Sep 26, 2016 11:28 AM in response to ylvaliaby jameson.h,Hi ylvalia,
Thank you for participating in the Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like an app install was accidentally approved but you want to remove the ability to download this app again. I can give you some advice that may be helpful in this instance.
Since the app was downloaded using your child's Apple ID (iTunes Store account,) you can hide the purchase using their device (not the family organizer's device.) You can follow the steps in Hide and unhide iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store purchases. Note that it would be possible to unhide this purchase by signing into iTunes on a computer with the child's Apple ID.
Depending on the features of the specific app, you may also be able to block it on the child's device using Restrictions. See Use Restrictions on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.
Best Regards.
