If your parents are at all sympathetic, you could ask if you can start taking community college classes while in high school. Some folks drop out of high school to pursue college. You might find supporting info on Hoagies to present to your parents.
After taking graduate level classes, I had a really, really hard time focusing on classes for my Bachelor's degree. (One thing that helped: Breaking the work up so I wasn't bored to tears for too long a stretch at any one time.) Due in part to divorce and financial problems and other issues, my degree remains unfinished. I have an Associates and two different certificates (wildly different, in fact), one of which was paid for by my employer. (Yes it helps to get paid to pay attention to this stuff and finish the class.)
As an adult, I'm mostly not required to take classes that bore me to tears. It's possible I'll wind up an entrepreneur simply because I am not all that enthused about going back to undergrad classes after doing graduate level work and most employers won't let me advance much without the sheepskin. Being an adult does give you some choices that being a minor doesn't.
