Had several rare pokemon run away while wife and son catch them
I have had Tentacruel, Starmie, Ninetales, Scyther, and a few others run away from me after a few failed attempts at catching them. Yet my wife and son standing right next to me catch them. Is there a glitch in my app? Why is it I am the only one who has these rare pokemon run away? Wartortle was another one.

Pokémon spawn are identical between different players in the area, but the Pokémon statistics are derived from your level.
If you are level 25 and your family is around level 5, your Pokémon will be potentially much higher CP, causing their chance to run away to go up.
In addition, the Pokémon running away is a random event so there also discrepancy between players due to randomness.

Wild Pok\xe9mon escaping is a key aspect of capturing in Pok\xe9mon GO.

Every species has a its own base flee rate, a flat probability of fleeing after breaking out of a Pok\xe9 Ball.Do fled Pokemon come back?
Escaped Pokemon can Respawn Over Time If you fail to capture a certain Pokemon, it will reappear after a certain period of time. You can go to a different area for a while, then return once time has passed. If you fail to capture a rare Pokemon, it's a good idea to wait for it to reappear over time!What causes Pokemon to run away Pokemon go?
During an encounter, a Pokemon only has the opportunity to flee if it is not successfully caught. Because of this, Pokemon with low catch rates would be underrepresented in our sample, especially if a Pokemon repeatedly broke out of the ball.REAL LIFE POKEMON HAVE ESCAPED INTO OUR HOUSE!

Answer 2
To add to what Nelson said, there are other factors that determine qhethwr or not the pokemon will be caught. Starting off, the ball you throw. Such pokemon are usually hard to catch, so the use of pokéballs instead of greatballs or ultraballs could lead to them running away. Also, the way you throw the ball also has an impact on the catch chance. Lastly, there is the chance that your family used razz (or rasp i cant remember ) berries which makes the pokémon easier to catch.

Do not take this as offense but have you been GPS spoofing or maybe you randomly jump over the map while playing?
Because there is a chance you got soft banned.
Not saying you did, just trying to help.
This does take 4 hours to time out and you should be fine again
