Hi wtc444,
Sorry, I don't know of any simple way to require a password to access those settings.
However:
For children under 13, if you have family sharing set up,
YOU can manage the settings on their iPhones from your iPhone (or from their phones).
The articles below from Apple Support can help.
You might like to browse through them, and decide what suits your situation.
Set up Family Sharing on iPhone

Set up parental controls with Family Sharing on iPhone

or you can just set up Screen Time for your children

or
For family 13 years and older
Set up Screen Time for a family member on iPhone

Hope this helps you :-)
