I have tried everything to reset SCREENTIME passcode

So frustrating as tried everything to reset or erase the SCREENTIME code I cannot erase my data from old phone until I do. Any help to erase the data will be appreciated as it has already taken me too long to move over to a new iPhone which is proving to be a real headache. I have had apple phone since they came out but now seriously thinking of boxing the new one up and sending back for a refund.

iPhone 16 Pro Max, iOS 18

Wondering what "everything" means, and what you have actually tried:

Eg: Have you tried Apple Support's method (link below)? If so, what happens when you try to reset ?
