Deleting I messages

I cannot delete individual messages in a conversation because after I check off the message the Trash can Icon does not appear. Ir only allows me the option of Deleting All. Is it something to do with my settings?

iPad, iOS 13

I was not getting the Trash icon to delete specific messages. I ended up rebooting the ipad (which I probably should have done in the first place) and the problem went away. The trash icon now appears in the bottom left corner. Thanks!
