How to use parental controls on your child‘s iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - https://support.apple.com/HT201304 - including what to do if you forgot the passcode (see also: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/7846481?answerId=31330560022#31330560022)


If you forgot the passcode [including a restrictions passcode] for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - http://support.apple.com/HT204306 - You can restore from a backup but that backup has to date from before you set the restrictions password.
