Screen time

long-time android user—finally broke down & bought iPhone so I could manage my daughter’s (excessive) screen time use. Turns out every time I’ve set screen time she’s just been going in & clicking “turn off screen time” & it’s let her do that without putting in any passcode or anything!!?! I assume I’ve got to be missing something because that makes screen time totally worthless — which it has been on my daughter’s phone all this time. Ugh, help please??
