Not a great solution, but getting rid of premium connectivity would kill it (unless connected to wifi). Of course you would also loose traffic info and streaming, so probably not the solution you are looking for. But I am confused, why are you letting your kid do anything on the main screen while you are driving??? I did not think any of the video apps would work at all while you are driving (on the main screen anyway).

You are the parental control. Godspeed.
Not signing up for premium connectivity worked for us.
I would also love some kind of parental controls capability that allows the owner to restrict screen access. Every time I walk away from the car, my kid tries to sneak in and dive into the menus. Makes me worried he'll change some key setting or open up the service menu (which he knows about).
fix the root cause. What caused your kids to be YouTube addict? It is the parents most of the time. Time to be the actual "parent(s)" and take action to change your kid(s), not the car.
Kids jump in front seat any chance they get.
Florida allows you to play games while driving.

None of the theater stuff works when the car is in motion, which you’d of course know if this was a serious post.

Why is your kid randomly jumping in the seat “any chance they get”? Be a parent and control your child. You have the authority to tell them what is and isn’t allowed by setting rules and boundaries and expected behavior.
It’s not Tesla or YouTube’s job to do your parenting for you. You shouldn’t have to somehow delete or disable the YouTube app in the car. Just tell your child no, you can’t use it.
It doesn’t even work in motion anyways.

My intuition tells me that this thread is right at the point where it is about to go off the rails. The answer to the thread question has already been given, which is either dont buy premium connectivity, or "no" (ignoring the social solution).
I also dont quite understand what "Florida allows playing games while driving" means, when the OP has "vancouver" under their name, and that statement appears to be patently false, according to everything I found on the internet, like so:
So, I am locking this thread.
