I'm curious why that's so important to you.

I’m 18 years old living in my overly strict parents house. I want to move out but I have no money because they don’t allow me to have access to it. I started making money online but I need an online bank account to option said money. Issue is, if we get mailed a debit card they’ll know what I’m up to. I probably won’t be able to make enough in the 5 days it takes to ship the card to move out.

That sucks; I'm sorry. Can you maybe get a mailbox at the UPS store or something? It's a good idea anyway; then you can keep using it after you move.

All the online banks require a residential address. They don’t allow for P.O. Boxes unfortunately

Banks mail to the account holders address used when setting up the account. I have never heard of a bank that would accept a PO Box as an address.
Edit: Oops I didn't scroll down enough to see OP's reply. Not deleting as that's a dickhead move.

Mailbox services aren't PO boxes; this is a different thing.
Even if they didn't allow it as a physical address, they still allow you to indicate a separate mailing address.
