Hello,
I see you want to disable two-factor authentication. For some background I suggest you read the support article: "Two-factor authentication for Apple ID" - Two-factor authentication for Apple ID - Apple Support
It is not simply a matter of being enrolled for 14 days or not. That only applies if you have an old account and just recently changed to two factor.
Several years ago Apple transitioned to using two-factor authentication for additional account security. Accounts created since that time automatically use two-factor authentication and this indeed cannot be disabled.
Some people have older accounts from before two-factor authentication was mandatory on new accounts. Apple encourages those users to transition to two-factor authentication when signing in on their accounts because without it "your account is less secure and you can't use features that require a higher level of security." However, the support article also says in tiny, light-grey font: "If you updated to two-factor authentication inadvertently, you can turn it off within two weeks of enrollment." In other words if you have an older account, recently activated two factor authentication ("inadvertently" or not), and you're within the two week period for turning it off again, you should check for an email from Apple for a way to do this. If you don't see one about this, look in your junk mail folder.

If you've enrolled in it longer then 14 days ago you cannot un-enroll as two factor authentication is an important measure to keep your Apple ID safe
If you received an email from Apple with a link to a site to disable Two Factor, follow the instructions.
If you did not receive this email, you cannot disable Two Factor.
Are there any particular issues or difficulties you are encountering using Apple’s 2FA ?
With THAT we can help.
