If it is a repeating fail to move forward, then by all means stop doing the same thing.


Bypass the issue.


If you are currently stuck—force quit a shutdown by holding the power button/TouchID for ~6-10 sec.

Force Shut down your Mac.


Log out, sleep, wake, restart or shut down your Mac

It is not mission critical to set up your "screentime" at this time(?)
