Screen Time Glitch 1 Min three times turns off

When screens time is in effect and a kid presses the "1 minute more" option in three different apps, the over all screen time is turned off. This is a glitch that has caused some accusations in my home. Apple please fix. We have the latest software for our phones. He uses iPhone 12 Pro. Please let me know when fixed
