Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

Is it possible to delete an app I already approved to the point where they would need to ask permission again to download it again? I deleted something but she can just reinstall it, no ask to buy step again.

I approved an app for my child, and have since deleted it. But she has the ability to download it again since I already approved it. Is there a way to delete an app whereby she would need my approval again to reinstall it?

Hide the purchase. See the instructions in Hide purchases from the App Store - Apple Support including the following:

And if you use Family Sharing, family members can't redownload the app from your list of shared purchases.
