Screen time set up problem

Hello, I'm new to iPad. I'm in the process of setting up, and all was going well until I came to "screen time". I pressed "set up later in settings", and I got the little whirly wheel thing - and it has been going for a hour now, and there seems to be no way to get out of it. How do I escape the Wheel of Doom without resetting the whole thing, knowing that, when I arrive back at this point, the same thing will happen again?

Try a forced-restart of your iPad - as this will often clear an isolated software issue:

Force restart iPad (models with Face ID or with Touch ID in the top button)

If your iPad doesn’t have the Home button, do the following:

Press and quickly release the volume button nearest to the top button.
Press and quickly release the volume button farthest from the top button.
Press and hold the top button.
When the Apple logo appears, release the top button.
