This is the most extensive list I have found for juvenile status offenses is:
absence from school (truancy), flight from home, disobedience of reasonable parental controls, and purchase of alcohol, tobacco, or PORNOGRAPHY.
It also lists possession of a gun by a minor as a status offense.
The site explains that anything that is illegal for a minor but not an adult is a juvenile status offense.
