Well if you do want to be technical you are not 100% wrong. Mac is expensive and if you broke one you would probably cry with the cost of repairs.
Is it secure and hard to get viruses compared to windows? Absolutely. Are there cheaper alternatives to perform this same function? 100%
Most get MacBooks to avoid having to worry about their child’s safety on the internet and because it looks trendy. While if you didn’t care about the trendy aspect Linux would be a perfect alternative. Also bloatware is an issue with Macs as well.
I am speaking from someone who owns windows, Linux and Mac. It certainly checks a few of the boxes for being the perfect PC for kids. Issue is kids break things and honestly rather give my kid a duster laptop with Ubuntu on it before giving them a MacBook. And of course the amount of bloatware.
