Q: Need to change restrictions passcode

I'm trying to change the parental restrictions code on my sons iPhone and I don't see an option to do that anywhere. How do I do this?

A:

To change the code go into Settings > General > Restrictions (you will need to enter the current code), tap Disable Restrictions at the top of that screen to turn restrictions 'off', that will then change to 'Enable Restrictions', and tapping that will let you re-enable them with a new code (you will probably have to reset all any restrictions that you want)
