If i were to sneak out of my house and go to another country and my parents call the police, when i come back into the U.S. can i be under house arrest?

Umm..... so the U.S. border is just outside your front door is it?

We don't know about U.S. law as this is a U.K. site.

Depends on your age, or whether you're an 'emancipated' youth. The act of 'house arrest' would have to be part of an 'ajudication' which means you would have had to go to court for the ajudication to occur. No police in the US (yet) can impose sentences... I'm sure they'd like to...
But before you continue to ponder this idea, it's much more likely, if you're youth is obvious, that the airline may not even carry you...or the arrival country, when you go through customs, may either simply put you back on the plane you came in on because you're too young, or worse, detain you until a decision can be made, in consultation with your parents, as to the best way to get you back home.

In other words matie... I wouldn't try it if I were you...

But then...it sounds exactly like the nonsense I used to get up to when I was young.

Good luck
