I don't want to spend a lot of time house-training the dog, I hate yapping, I exercise moderately, I don't deal well with aggressive dogs. What kind of dog should I get?

Are they safe? Why would anyone want their spine "adjusted"? Isn't that a little dangerous? Chiropractors have asked me to come to their practice because my insurance pays for it, but I really hesitate. Any advice?

I have tried to help him with jobs (he quits or loses hours), college (quit, owes money), moving to another city (OK for a while, then failure and more money must be sent). He repeatedly hooks up with a girlfriend who is a bigger a loser than he is (jail, shoplifting, drugs, borderline personality disorder) and she makes the situation worse. Now her parents have kicked her out of the house and I refuse to see either one of them. Fortunately, I get to see my grandson (whom he doesn't support) because I'm on good terms with the mom, who is wonderful. I'm scared about the time when I get too old to defend my house, or my retirement income. (I'm not currently retired, but looking down the road.) What should I do?
