is the PayPal account in your name or somebody else’s? e.g. in Italy where I live you’re required to be 18 to open one
Best option is to speak with a parent or another adult and let them help you. Its wise to tell them that you want to start saving for college or a future business and want to invest in stocks(index fund), Bitcoin , and a fiat savings in preparation. Most parents will have no problem helping you and even be proud when you invest this way.
many people visit atms that only require sms verification(free sms sites exist) for smaller amounts in this list – https://coinatmradar.com/
Atms are usually 5-30% more expensive so be careful!
Other options that don’t require verification like this list –

If using a DEX like bisq or robosats you will need to have a small amount of btc to get started though
