In your case, this is because all videos "made for kids" must have comments turned off per YouTube policy: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/9706180

Yes, but cause and effect are reversed from the teacher's perspective. They mark the video as "made for kids" because that's the easiest way to disable comments.

It's required to mark the video as made for kids if it's for kids.
