In America? You can be whatever religion you want to be as long as it doesn't cause anyone harm. Your parents might not like it, but you have an inalienable right to believe whatever you choose to believe. Your parents can't force you to be just like them, regardless of age.

It depends. Being a minor, you still need to follow the rules of your parents in their home. However, you can certainly practice whatever religion you wish in the privacy of your own room, or outside their home, in my opinion.
Good luck with everything.

Minors are subject to the guidance of their parents until they reach the age of majority. However, many denominations require the consent of children before they are fully inducted.

Minors should follow the rules of the house and do what is best for the family. Where do they get off thinking someone should care for them in every kind of way but let them do as they please.

Minors don't have any rights except may the right not to be beaten to a bloody pulp or sexually assaulted by adults.
