I had forgotten my screen time password. When I reset it with the forgot my password option. After doing so it still will not allow me in with the new password. What else can I do to change the password so that it works?

If you have forgotten your Screen Time passcode. There are two options.
If you are unable to reset the Screen Time passcode from this-> link then, you will need a computer for option 2. If you don't have one, borrow one from a friend.
If you have chosen option 2 then regarding your data, If…
You have an iCloud or iTunes backup, I am sorry there is no use of a backup because if you restore from your backup your Screen Time Passcode will be back.
If you have not imported nor you have synced or uploaded your data to cloud drives prior to forgetting the Screen Time passcode then I am sorry, all your data is lost.
