The trouble you can get into is largely with your parents. You could also become another of the 40,000 missing children cases in FL that occur each year. The school would probably contact your parents. Why do you want to start a hunt for a missing child that costs many thousands of dollars? Until you are 18, your parents have the final say in what you do.
