Screen Time Request Notifications

I recently started getting requests for more screen time in iMessages rather than a notification. How can I stop getting these requests in iMessages?

TURN OFF SCREEN TIME REQUEST SPAMMING IMESSAGE This is getting frustrated now. No matter how many negative comments about screentime requests being dropped on iMessage, iOS developers still not getting it!!!! Can this be made optional? We should have an option where it’s delivered via notifications like the old versions of iOS via iMessage (which no one will opt) or maybe i just dont know this option exist already. My iMessage is now flooded with these screentime requests and it is now getting a burden searching for important messages.

Please stop sending Screen Time requests via iMessage! Screen time requests being sent by Message is incredibly aggravating! This seems like an update that came along with iOS 17 and I would love a way to turn it off. Prior to this update I would only receive a Screen Time notification with a request from my child for additional time on an app. Now, I receive a Screen Time notice and Messages to the whole family with the request. To make it so much worse, the request will often be automatically be granted, for the entire day, when I do check the message, even if i check immediately. Neither I or my wife have approved the requests. How can I turn off notifications for Screen Time via Message, so I just get the old iOS notification?

You can be happy. I never get any notifications. No push or an iMessage at all.

Totally broken!
