Hey Titan241.

Something you may want to try is removing the user in question from the Family Sharing group and then adding them back and setting up Screen Time again. Here's a few different ways that this can be done based on the device you're using:

" On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

1. Go to Settings.
2. Tap your name, then tap Family Sharing.
3. Tap the name of the family member that you want to remove.
4. Tap Remove [your family member's name] from Family.
5. 

On your Mac

1. Choose Apple menu  > System Preferences, then click Family Sharing.
2. Click Details next to the name of the family member that you want to remove.
3. Click Remove [your family member's name].

If you're using macOS Mojave or earlier, choose Apple menu  > System Preferences > iCloud, then click Manage Family. Click the name of the family member that you want to remove, then click the Remove (—) button in the bottom-left corner."

This info comes from the Leave Family Sharing page. If this doesn't work, Get Support directly from Apple using this link for more steps. Apple Support

Take care.

Hey Titan241,

Screen Time and parental controls shouldn’t turn off on its own. Are you using a Screen Time passcode so that only you can change the settings and turn the feature off? If not, do so using the steps in the following link. The steps can vary based on whether or not you’re using Family Sharing:

Use Screen Time on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

If the issue is still occurring after that, make sure his iPhone is up to date. Keeping iOS update can often resolve issues as well. You can read how do this here:

1. Back up your device using iCloud or your computer.

2. Plug your device into power and connect to the internet with Wi-Fi.

3. Go to Settings > General, then tap Software Update.

4. Choose the software update that you want to install. You can choose to stay on iOS or iPadOS 15 and still get important security updates. Or you can choose the option to upgrade to iOS or iPadOS 16.

5. Tap Install Now. If you see Download and Install instead, tap it to download the update, enter your passcode, then tap Install Now.

Update your iPhone or iPad

Then review this article make sure you get the most out of parental controls:

Use parental controls on your child's iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch

Take care.

Thanks for confirming, Titan241.

We'd like to have you go to Settings > Screen Time > [Your Account] > Change Screen Time Passcode, to try temporarily changing the screen time passcode for the next 24 hours.

Be sure that you have Face ID or Touch ID enabled on your device, as this can affect Screen Time.

Let us know if this helps!
