Children are, indeed, quite expensive! And adoption can-but does not always-cost a lot.
Focus on yourself now, and your education. Once you meet your future husband and both agree on how many children to have, then you can better plan that part of your life. It is nice to have a dream, and I am not telling you to not go for it. I just do not want you to miss out on anything right now.
You can adopt through the US foster care system, and the costs-if any-are minimal. International adoption (which we are preparing for ourselves) and private adoption are costly. There are pros and cons to each, and there are financing options. Most adoptive parents are not rich, and have saved for many years to pay the associated expenses. Some companies offer their employees adoption benefits (the military does also). There are tax rebates available, possible subsidies...the cost is still substantial, but it all helps.
I wish you much luck with your life. You sound like a very bright, stable 14 year old.

It's ok to imagine what you might do when you're older. To earn a lot of money, get good grades, start saving money now and then get scholarships so you can go to college without a lot of loans.
Stay in school all the way through to your Master's or Doctorate degree. During that time, if you meet someone and get married, you can have your first 3 kids while in school. After you get your advanced degree, you'll be able to get the highest paying jobs that will allow you to spend all that money on adoptions for your next 3 kids.

I suggest that you just enjoy your teens years and concentrate on your studies. I know now is the age when most people would be thinking about what going to happen in the future but for right now concentrate on the present. Before you have kids you will obviously look to get married first. But I dont know if this will help but I have five boys and my wife is going to give birth to our sixth son sometime soon. I tell you that having six kids is fun but is a lot of hard work and trouble. If you have any other questions feel free to email. I have had a lot of experience with kids.

one in all those subject is in my kin too. i'm 4 years older than my oldest niece and 5 and a nil.5 years older than her sister. they don't call me aunt. all of us grew up mutually, and we are so close in age, quite everyone theory they have been my cousins. some human beings nevertheless do. My sister and stated niece have been pregnant on the same time as quickly as, and my sister had a boy. Her daughter had one little woman already, and replaced into pregnant with yet another woman. The babies have been born 5 days aside, and the three of all of them grew up mutually. while they have been in grade college mutually, the oldest newborn talked approximately the little boy as her uncle, and it blew her friends' minds. even although my nephew is her uncle, they don't refer to him as such. Your inlaw's are attempting to implement something that may not needed. in simple terms permit the youngsters be infants; they're going to supply him noogies besides. pass away them on my own.

At 14, this is not something you need to be thinking about. At such a young age, this is a pipe dream. Enjoy your childhood while you still have it. In about 10 years or so, then you can think about kids.
Don't rush growing up. You'll get there.

That you are 14 explains your question. Please, please realise that you have one chance to go through schools and concentrate on that. If you are successful, I guarantee you that you can have all the 6 kids without asking how to get the money.....I request you don't become another teen mother in a quest to have kids....

Lol! When I was your age, my dream was to have 9 kids!!! Needless to say, I wasn't at all upset when God insisted I stop after just two (my uterus prolapsed)! Although, I love my kids with all of my heart, raising two nowadays is plenty! =)

Just enjoy your teen years and then your college years before thinking about kids....you have plenty of time to worry about that later.

Concentrate on your education first.
Remember, you need to earn the income to support a family.
