My theme has already ACF plugin inside My-parent-theme/include/acf.pro. Once I installed ACF free plugin notice showed as your theme has already ACF plugin. please deactive acf plugin. this massage from parent code inside my-parent-theme/include/addons.

my question is:
Can I Show admin setting without installed the ACF free plugin inside my child-theme active. I’ve chek on the documentation

here is my code inside the function:
if ( ! has_filter( 'acf/settings/show_admin' ) ) {
	add_filter('acf/settings/show_admin', '__return_true');
}

Solved by myself.

just find the correct directories and put on child.

/*ACF*/
// 1. customize ACF path
add_filter('acf/settings/path', 'my_acf_pro_settings_path');
function my_acf_pro_settings_path( $path ) {
    $path = get_template_directory() . '/includes/acf-pro/';
    return $path;
}

// 2. customize ACF dir
add_filter('acf/settings/dir', 'my_acf_pro_settings_dir');
 
function my_acf_pro_settings_dir( $dir ) {
    $dir = get_template_directory_uri() . '/includes/acf-pro/';
    return $dir;
}

// 3. Hide ACF field group menu item
if ( ! has_filter( 'acf/settings/show_admin' ) ) {
	add_filter('acf/settings/show_admin', '__return_true');
}

// 4. Include ACF
include_once( get_template_directory() . '/includes/acf-pro/acf.php' );
