When Apple first introduced in-app purchasing, you could make an in-app purchase without having to reenter your password if you had entered it in the last 15 minutes. Meaning that if you bought a 99c game for your kid and gave it to them to play with, they could buy any in app purchase for 15 minutes without having to reenter a password.

They changed it to always require a password for in app purchases for exactly the reasons you stated - kids inadvertently racking up unexpected charges.
