The question is much too broad to be answered specifically. However - if you are still legally a minor, possibly, your parents might be be held liable for civil damages, but they would not be held responsible for your criminal activities. If you are considered to be legally an adult in your state, it is only YOU that would be responsible for your actions.

Laws, rules and regulations are the framework for a civilized society. We need to know the consequences of our actions and the actions of other people.

When you do something that is considered morally and legally unacceptable and counterproductive to society you cause harm to society as a whole.
