No problem. Here is Luke 2:41-52
Quote: Luke 2:41-52 New International Version (NIV)
The Boy Jesus at the Temple
41 Every year Jesus’ parents went to Jerusalem for the Festival of the Passover. 42 When he was twelve years old, they went up to the festival, according to the custom. 43 After the festival was over, while his parents were returning home, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem, but they were unaware of it. 44 Thinking he was in their company, they traveled on for a day. Then they began looking for him among their relatives and friends. 45 When they did not find him, they went back to Jerusalem to look for him. 46 After three days they found him in the temple courts, sitting among the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions. 47 Everyone who heard him was amazed at his understanding and his answers. 48 When his parents saw him, they were astonished. His mother said to him, “Son, why have you treated us like this? Your father and I have been anxiously searching for you.”
49 “Why were you searching for me?” he asked. “Didn’t you know I had to be in my Father’s house?”[a] 50 But they did not understand what he was saying to them.
51 Then he went down to Nazareth with them and was obedient to them. But his mother treasured all these things in her heart. 52 And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man.
Bold is mine, highlighting that he ran away for three days against the will of his parents and that he was obedient only afterwards.
This is in comparison to the 4th commandment which is to honor thy father and mother. Exodus 20:12
Jesus was honoring His Father, bold mine in red, Jesus was saying to His mother and Joseph that they should have come straight away to the temple because there was no other place He would be. They never told Jesus to come home with them so He couldn't have disobeyed them. Mary must not have seen what Jesus did as disobedience because she treasure all those things in her heart, a parent doesn't treasure disobedience. Bold in blue by me.
Now to address your purposeful misinterpretation, you say He ran away, the scriptures say He stayed behind, He may have been in the temple before they left but we know for sure He did not run away because He never left with them. Your deception was fruitless, truth always works best.

Matthew leaves the ear off:
Matthew 26 (KJV)
51 And, behold, one of them which were with Jesus stretched out his hand, and drew his sword, and struck a servant of the high priest's, and smote off his ear.
Mark leaves the ear off:
Mark 14 (KJV)
47 And one of them that stood by drew a sword, and smote a servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.
John leaves the ear off:
John 18 (KJV)
10 Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and smote the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.
Not sure how this helps your side . . . .
I do not see that I'm on any side, I am following God. Just because three did not tell of the healing doesn't mean it did not happen, the three that left it out had seen jesus heal the sick, cripple and blind many many times and would not be surprised at this healing. Luke on the other hand had not seen all those healings and as a doctor was fascinated by it.
This is all you see in this story pitiful, you were the one who said Jesus was promoting using violence and I was showing you that He wasn't, you strayed from the argument because you had none.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
