[[File:20080815parkstreet(1).png|thumb|Theo Whittaker's childhood home.]]During his teenage years, Theo spent two months every year living with his mother aboard the ''U.S.S. Sparrow'', a Starfleet patrol ship assigned to the 'core worlds' of the [[United Federation of Planets|Federation]]. While his mother did appreciate her husband's wishes for Theo to follow in his footsteps, she also privately believed that her son should be allowed to make his own choices and thus did not oppose Theo's decision to enter Starfleet Academy. While she stood publicly by her husband, Theo was never the less aware of his mother's true feelings. | [[File:20080815parkstreet(1).png|thumb|Theo Whittaker's childhood home.]]During his teenage years, Theo spent two months every year living with his mother aboard the ''U.S.S.

On Archer IV, Theo lived in a mock-Georgian mansion close to Tucker's Landing University with his father. Designed in part by his father to recreate the ancestral home of the Whittaker family who hailed from the United Kingdom as far back as the 16th century, Theo spent many years exploring the various tunnels underneath the mansion. On many occasions he used them to evade his father's punishments. Modern day technology was expressly forbidden in the house aside from replicators, an unusual side effect of this being, it sparked Theo's interest in technology and in engineering. | |||
As a teen, and in another effort to put as much as distance between himself and his father, Theo took up hiking, often disappearing for weekends at a time in the Keating Mountains, which lay on the outskirts of Tucker's Landing. He later regretted not being able to do as much hiking as he would have liked while attending Starfleet Academy in San Fransisco. | As a teen, and in another effort to put as much as distance between himself and his father, Theo took up hiking, often disappearing for weekends at a time in the Keating Mountains, which lay on the outskirts of Tucker's Landing.
