iPhone Won't stop asking for Screen Time password when trying to edit a contact.

I have a problem where my iPhone asks for my Screen Time password, when editing a contact. It affects several of my contacts, but not all.

At the affected contacts are the following text.

Parents or Guardians in Family Sharing can view this contact card.

But in the Family Sharing there is only me as the "Organizer" and another one as an "Adult".

How do i stop it from asking me for my Screen Time password when i am editing a contact? And how to remove the Parent(s)/Guardian(s)?

iPhone XR, iOS 16

Hey there Lukas01,

For your question about removing a family member from your Family Sharing group, this link lists the steps under the section 'Remove someone from your Family Sharing group': Leave Family Sharing

Regarding being prompted for your Screen Time password when editing a contact, this usually indicates you have set Screen Time settings for Contacts under Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > Privacy > Contacts. We recommend checking to see if you have this enabled, and adjust it to your preference.

While this link has several details about setting up Screen Time, the section we wanted to call special attention to would be the one near the bottom labeled 'Set content and privacy restrictions' here: Set up Screen Time for yourself on iPhone

Cheers!
