This is a very, very bad idea in the US. As a 13-year-old, you can't legally sign a contract, and that has serious implications for both parties as well as your parents.
Edit: comment below is correct, please disregard what I said (although it's still a very bad idea to trick people into signing a contract with you).

That's not generally true, in US jurisdictions; minors can legally enter into contracts, but contracts with minors outside of certain limits are generally voidable at the option of the minor. And a number of states have additional rules which provide conditions which allow some contracts of minors which would otherwise be voidable to be binding if certain procedural steps are taken.

That's not getting the kid off to a good start, lying to get in. Not good at all.
