12 day waiting period to reset password?

I find it ridiculous to have a 12 day waiting period in order to reset a forgotten password that my child has on one of our apple devices. Am I alone?

"Reset your Apple ID password on the web


If you don't have a trusted device, you can reset your password on the web — but the process might take a little longer.


When possible, the web process redirects you to a trusted device. If you'll have access to one of your trusted devices soon, it might be faster and easier to reset your password then."
