Parents are always involved in passport application for minors.
no
Beginning in June 2009, a passport or alternative document such as a "passport card" will be required for travel by land and sea, but special provisions will be made to allow school or other organized groups of children ages 18 and under who are US or Canadian citizens to enter the US with proof of citizenship alone. In order to prevent international child abductions, minors traveling without their parents, or with only one parent, may be asked to present proof that they have their parents' authorization for travel. * A minor traveling unaccompanied by his or her parents must carry a notarized letter signed by the parents authorizing the travel. * If only one parent is traveling with the child, they may be asked to show either documents proving they have sole legal custody of the child, or a notarized letter from the other parent authorizing the child to travel outside the country of origin. To see the requirements and obtain the forms to get your child a passport, please see this government website: http://travel.state.gov/passport/get/minors/minors_834.html

No you should not, especially by your parents. It makes the teenager uncomfortable. It is highly immature.
Probably to show them that they think the teenager is mature enough to have an allowance.
I recommend you check specifically with the airline you are using by going to their web site. In general, you will find it differs depending on whether you are traveling internationally or not, and whether or not the parents are still married. If traveling internationally, you will need a passport, written permission signed by both parents, and while not required - I recommend written permission that authorizes the grandparents to make medical decisions (also insurance info)
