Hello again ~ From the same article….


*If you can't reset your Screen Time passcode

If you can't reset your Screen Time passcode, make sure that you're using the same Apple ID that you used when setting up the Screen Time passcode. This might be a different Apple ID than the one that you're signed in to on your device. If you're part of a Family Sharing group, it might be a family member's Apple ID or your child's Apple ID. 

If you still have issues resetting your Screen Time passcode, contact Apple Support<<<Click
