How to require password for each iTunes purchase

I'd like to setup my son's iPod Touch so that all purchases from iTunes require a password to be entered at each purchase. Currently, when the first purchase is made a password is required. However, subsequent purchases do not require the password. Is it possible to require the password each time a purchase is made from iTunes?

Dell, Windows Vista

The only ways I know of is to take the iPod away from him for 15 minutes, or sign-out of your account after completing his purchase.

From page 133 of the User Guide, "For additional purchases made within the next fifteen minutes, you don’t have to enter your password again."

To sign-out, go to Settings > Store > Sign-Out.
