It’s via the forgotten password mechanisms, and via control of the rescue email address within Family Sharing.


The reset message goes to the organizer, not to the child.

Per Apple: Your email address is the rescue email address for your child’s account, and you can use it with the security questions you provided to reset a forgotten password.
