I need to turn off search function on my autistic's son TV

My son has no concept of money.  Direct TV has no way to turn off purchases.   He likes to search, like on his computer and will rent or buy them without understanding he spent money.   He can not do it on the computer because there is no linked account.   Any solution?

At this time there is no solution other than using a different TV service for him. It is unknown why DIRECTV STREAM doesn't have a normal parental controls with the option to lock out PPVs (needing PIN to order) like the traditional satellite service.
