Restricitons Passcode

I am trying to erase all contents and settings on my sons ipad before I sell it and I do not remember my restrictions passcode. I know my ipad passcode, but it also asks for my Restrictions passcode after I enter my ipad passcode and I do not remember it. How to I move retrieve my Restrictions passcode in order to move forward?

If you need to reset your ScreeTime passcode (previously known in earlier versions of iOS/iPadOS as the Restrictions passcode), you’ll need to follow one of these procedures:

If you have iPadOS 13.4.1 or later installed (iPadOS 13.6 is current), then you’re in luck - as this version introduces, for the first time in iOS/iPadOS, a simple reset mechanism.
