Screen time and Passcode issue

I wanted to get rid of my son's screen time restrictions. I signed him out of his iPad and signed myself in then went to sort out screentime. It keeps asking me for a four digit passcode but I can't remember it. I've tried every number I might have used but am stuck. What can I do? I can't remember the screen time passcode or the 6 digit iPad passcode so can't even do a factory reset - help!

iPad, iPadOS 13

Screen time “Forgot passcode?” not working. Hello all reading this. I have experienced difficulties with the Screen Time in settings. 1 a few years ago my mother set screen time on my iPhone and iPad. We have tried taking the screen time off but we can’t remember the passcode. We have tried using the “Forgot passcode?” option and when we enter my apple id and password it does not work. It says “Wait 60 minutes” and does nit let us do anything. this has been happening for months and yes, my devices are updated to the latest possible.
