Answer:

Truancy, vagrancy, and running away from home are all examples of status offenses.

Step-by-step explanation:

You are considered truant when you do not show up at school. Vagrancy is another word being homeless without any income. Truancy, vagrancy, and running away from home are all considered status offenses. Status offenses are offenses commited by youth that are not as serious as index offenses. Index offenses include things like murder and robbery.
