I presume you mean the opposite.


With reference to the support article If a message says 'Your account has been disabled in the App Store and iTunes' - Apple Support , you must contact Apple for help if you see that message or one saying "You cannot login because your account has been locked". This is not something you can fix yourself.

or for telephone contacts refer to: Contact Apple for support and service - Apple Support


You can also use the general support link at Official Apple Support but frankly it will be a lot faster and easier to just use the direct link above since spending 5 minutes poking around the general support pages will likely end up at the same place.


If you truly mean you want to disable them, see how to use Screen Time on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch by clicking here --> Use Screen Time on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
