I ran the new Safety Check feature on my phone and thought, "this is an amazing feature I need to secure my children's phones immediately!" To my surprise I was blocked by Apple.
Can someone explain the reasoning behind this? Or explain what I am not understanding.
It seems children would be the #1 Priority.

Safety Check is available only on iPhone and only if you have a personal Apple ID (not a Managed Apple ID) that uses two-factor authentication. You must also be signed in to Settings > [Your Name] on your iPhone. After you're signed in, you can go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Safety Check.

Only Apple could explain that and they don't participate here on that level. You can try contacting Apple Support using the Support like at the bottom left of every page of these forums. I'm not sure how those folks would know about an issue like this.
You can also let Apple know what you'd like to see here:
Meanwhile, you may want to protect the children using the tools Apple has provided for that:
Use parental controls on your child's iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
They have personal Apple IDs.
They have two-factor authentication on
They are both signed in.
Did you see the attached screenshot?
No Safety Check on children's devices!?
