how to block access to add-on tab ?

I want to restrict access to several websites on a Linux Mint laptop. Downloaded "Block Site" add-on, works perfect!

But it's quite easy to go to add-on tab and disable it, how do I prevent this?

Just password protect your account and laptop so no on besides you can use it. If your system is password protect anyone can use your computer and browser and browser links.

It's my daughters laptop, she's still a kid, the laptop has a family filter (DNS cloudflare), but it is still possible to access several social media websites, "Block Site" does the job but it is still possible to access the add-on menu and change the websites being blocked, I want to prevent that...
