    Hello Yasmingaray,

     

    It sounds like you cannot remember the Restrictions Passcode that was set up on the phone. According to the following resource, you will need to restore the phone and set it up as a new device to reset that.

     

    Note: If you forget this passcode, you'll need to restore the iPhone software to change restrictions.

    From: Turn on restrictions.
