I definitely understand this can be frustrating. In the ITunes Store terms and conditions …technically all sales are final. No one is entitled to a refund. But on the bright side, Apple does have self service options to process a refund request and also you could contact call center.

Just know that it can take up to 48 hours before a decision has been made for your approval, and if it’s approved… it can take up to 30 days to get the refund.
To prevent this in the future, it would be wise to change passcode on iPhone.
You also could setup family sharing and create a child account so your child can play games and you can control what he/she downloads with Ask to buy.

If there is no other device, I would suggest turning on screen time on your phone as well and disallowing any in app purchases.
