You cannot do it on the iPhone, seems to have to be on a Mac

  1. Choose Apple menu > System Preferences > iCloud.
  2. Click Manage Family and select your family member's name.
  3. Select Ask to Buy.


There is a button here that you un-click to turn it off.


Very frustrating that you cannot do it from an iPhone! Overall the "Ask to Buy" feature is total crap! Did not work at all for me to approve purchases.
