I'm trying to watch the menu on X-box and I'm being blocked by parental controls

I am 40 and blocked by parental controls... It's my account

Nice to meet you, *****!

You can click on the heading that says User Accounts and Family Safety. Once you are in it, you will see Parental Controls. Click on it and set it to off. This will turn off the parental controls that might be on for any user account.
Please check your Xbox.
Could be S.

When I click that it says "change pin" or do you mean not in the app
You mean not in the app. Sorry. Thanks.
