I'm having a really hard time setting up the screen time on my kids devices! I have added them to family share but I don't know why it just wont do anything when I try to use "downtime"

iPhone 14, iOS 16

Parental Screen Time Controls / content Restrictions turning off April 2023 The Screen Time settings and especially the content & privacy restrictions keep resetting, turning off ALL of the restrictions for All of my kids phones and their iPads. The content & privacy restrictions turn off WITHOUT the screen time password being entered. They turn off EVERY TIME their phone or phone pad is turned off and turned back on again. All their devices are updated. Everything is shared across all devices linked to their iCloud account. We’re all under one family. There’s no reason for this. why does this keep happening?? This is the reason we got iPads and iPhones instead of their cheaper counterparts. I am considering switching them all to android’s because I hear they don’t have any issues with restrictions.

Parental controls on iPad and iPhone of the same kid Can I separate screen time restrictions on an iPad and iPhone for my kids? Or do I need to set up 2 different apple IDs?

Content restrictions won’t stay on for kids devices using screen time. My kids have separate ios accounts and I use screen time to monitor and limit usage. It is properly set up. I want content restrictions to be turned on for my kids but at times it turns off on its own. When I try and turn ‘content restrictions’ back on for my children. It toggles green/on but then shuts off after 3 seconds. Why would it not allow me to turn on content restrictions through screen time for my children? Any advice? thank you
