Hey Sclllll,
Thanks for posting your question in Apple Support Communities.
The article you have recently viewed provides great steps for creating a Child account, however this information would be assist you with this issue.
Unfortunately there is no way to view the messages of your child through family sharing. You can restore from backups on their device but to answer your question, yes they can be deleted prior to the backup therefore limiting what you can view.
If you would like to make a suggestion for a feature such as this you can leave feedback using this link: Product Feedback.
Best Wishes.
