This is the link to use to erase the iPad via iTunes: If you forgot the passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support
You cannot see OR edit your restrictions passcode. You MUST erase the device to remove it. And you cannot restore from a backup as the restrictions passcode IS contained in the backup. This would put you in a never ending cycle of disappointment.
While this link says for forgotten passcode, it is the same required action for forgotten Screen Time or Restrictions passcode. And this link is from Apple, not a 3rd party. If you called Apple, this is exactly what they would tell you to do.

Won't the backup also still have the password?

Yes, it will. That's why you restore the device as new.
How get my restrictions pascood
Are you sure that that is the default pass? Seems a bit too obvious.
Actually, I just tried that default password and it didn't work.

There is no "default" passcode. The passcode you have on your phone had to be explicitly chosen.

When you turn on restrictions, you can pick any passcode you like. However, if you forget it, there's no way recover it.
do you have any idea about restriction pass code
Hello,
That being said, when I tried this, the device still told me it was an incorrect passcode...
