How to disable Family Location sharing completely?

I am currently the organiser and realised that my child could disable/erase all the devices within the family group. Is there a way to limit my child's access to the rest of the family's devices?

While it seems that each user may be in a position to erase devices belonging to others the last step of the procedure requires that you enter the password for the Apple ID of the device's user. This feature is designed such that family members can help each other out in the event that a device is lost or stolen. Note that you can choose which members of your family can see your location.
