Second of all you have way too much adult experience for being only 17. Your focus should be to get a career.
Thank you. What am I supposed to do about this.
This notion implies you believe in the idealogy of buddha, essentially you believe all of us were able to choose which body we wanted to enter at the womb, full knowledge of our parents, our family, etc before we were born, so we chose our own lives. Regardless of what you think, I have no memory of me doing that, nor do I believe in it. I did not choose to have the life I've been given. I wouldn't change it or trade it for anything, but I did not choose to not get to have a childhood. Did you choose to have a childhood?
Adopting children can help supplement a career, or fund it. The financial crisis absolutely true and daunting, but you will be able to get by with leisure depending on how many children you can adopt. Assuming you enjoy kids.
I brought up the financial aspect, you get money monthly for adopting. If you think I wouldn't do it for free when I've never been paid for past experience before your head is in the wrong place.
