What's the average income for a minor leaguer?

Help me please. I read a bunch of posts, people seems shy away from the minor league pay. I heard Mrs. Tiger paw Mom said his son got $1100 per month. I was shocked. That is less money than the kids working in a McDonald's. Althogh my son is still young (freshman in a high school), he is the Star player in every level he played, I am expecting he be drafted from high school after 4 years. But with this kind of pay, he can barely make a living. with only 10% out of the minor leaguer make to the majors, I have to reconsider his future. Am I misunderstanding something here? By the way what's the average physical build needed to be a first rounder? My son is on his way to about 6'1'' 190lb. I have no doubt he can be a college player some where, but what I really wish for is a A-Rod kind of deal out of high school, am I really dreaming here? Sorry I am a "rookie" to the Baseball system,
any good advice will be helpful.
