Screen Time Passcode I just switched phones to an iPhone 14 Pro, I had previously set up family sharing with screen time restrictions on my last phone with myself as the family organizer. I tried to change screen time limitations for my kids and it asks for a "Screen Time Passcode." I don't have a Screen Time passcode as family organizer for my kids' screen time. Tried to change the screen time passcode, but there is no "Forgot Passcode" option. Help! I am running iOS 16.2

Unable to change a child’s passcode. Not screen time passcode, the actual phone passcode. The option is not available on the child’s phone. I am not able find a way to change it from my phone (parental controls or family sharing.) the link to parental controls use does not address this. Anyone know how to do this?

Setting Passcode for child’s iPhone (not for screen time) We have my daughter’s iPhone setup with a passcode for the screen time settings to manage when she uses the phone. But she would like a passcode to be set on her phone so that nobody else can open the phone when she goes to school. Same as I use mine for work etc. I can’t seem to find a way of setting this for her. Any suggestions?
