Family Sharing - lost screen time password

I have family sharing set up with screen time enabled. My 10 year old has tried to hack the screen time password and in doing so appears to have changed the password so I can no long turn off screen time. This is now a problem. Anyone know how to best recover the password?

See if you can do the below.


Screen Time passcode reset


If necessary,  you will need to restore the device to factory settings. Do not restore from a backup made when the Screen Time code was active.


Restore to Factory setting.
