Homeschooling isn't for every family. Many parents do not want to be responsible for your education, it's too important to mess up. If you are dependent on that parent's income it can also be a financial hardship. There is also the cost of books and materials. In some states you are still bound by compulsory attendance laws, others you are not. No one can make your parents homeschool you.
I'm not sure you could work full time; there are laws prohibiting young people from working full time because it interferes with your education. You would have to look up the child labor laws in your state.
You do not need a computer or internet to homeschool. It's nice, but not required. You can still use a book.
you only have 2 years of high school left and I recommend you stay with it. Sometimes its more important to prove (even to yourself) that you can stick with something until it is finished.
