I added money to my Apple ID so my kid could use it through family share and it’s not letting him use it is there a way I can allow him access so he doesn’t have access to my debit card

From How to share apps and purchases with your family - Apple Support:
Which payment method is charged for purchases that family members make?
When purchase sharing is turned on, everyone's purchases bill to the family organizer's payment method.* The family organizer can:
When a family member first makes a purchase on their device, the family organizer might need to verify the payment method by entering the CVV.
* If you're in a Family Sharing group, purchases that you make are charged to your personal Apple Account balance. If you don't have enough Apple Account balance to pay for the purchase, the remainder is charged to the family organizer if purchase sharing is turned on.
You (or they) can add store credit to their account so it is used instead of your payment method, but when purchase sharing is enabled the family organizer's payment is the fall back for everyone else in the group. They don't get to spend your store credit.

Add-on to the previous reply:
Just so its clear, your "payment method" that others might charge is the debit card you have. Your Apple Account balance can only be used by you for payment. If another family member makes a purchase Apple will in most cases try to bill their personal account balance. If it cannot then it will charge the rest to your card (again, not your personal account balance). Likewise if you buy something, Apple will in most cases attempt to charge your personal account balance, and if it cannot it will charge your card.
