He was not. To disobey, they would have had to tell Him not to go to the temple. He was just left behind.
In Luke 2:41-50 is the story of Jesus at the age of twelve remaining in Jerusalem at the temple. Jesus was not disobedient to his parents. The story tells us that His parents thought Jesus to be in the company of others as they traveled back to Nazareth. At the evening's end, His parents could not find Him anywhere in the company of people they were traveling with, so they returned to Jerusalem to find Him, and they did indeed find Him in the temple. Jesus was not a disobedient Son.
This story is in Luke 2.41 - 52. Jesus was separated from his parents when they went to Jerusalem to worship. But after 3 days his parents found him, "in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hearing them, and asking them questions." (Luke 2.46) Then his parents took him home and he was "subject unto them:" until the time of his ministry, when he was about 30 years old.
What we know from the Bible is that he spoke in the temple at Jerusalem when he was only 12. His parents (Mary and Joseph) did not realize he stayed; he spoke to the teachers and elders at the temple, who were greatly impressed with his manner and his knowledge.
