If a Profile is installed on that Mac, remove it.

Remove the profile that is restricting the changes.
Did you do something recently on your Mac that would have installed a profile?
Did you set up a work or school email account?
Did you download something recently that may have contained a profile?
Can you go to Settings ➜ General ➜ Device Management and see if there's a profile installed?
Do you have Screen Time Settings enabled?
