[[File:Madeline Whittaker1.png|thumb|left|250px|Captain Madeline Whittaker, Theo's mother]]Theo Michelangelo Whittaker was born on Stardate 236410.18 at the T'Pol's Landing University Hospital on Archer IV to Josiah and Madeline Whittaker. Though she took an extended leave of absence to raise Theo, Madeline returned to her career in Starfleet when he was 7 years old taking an assignment aboard the ''USS Sparrow'' which was permanently assigned to the Archer Sector. This allowed her to be close to her only son and be an effective co-parent with her husband. From an early age, Theo displayed an interest and aptitude with technology and by a teenager he harboured a desire to become an engineer in the Federation [[Starfleet]]. Despite this, his father insisted he abandoned these dreams and wanted Theo to devote himself to a life of academic study as he and his father had before him. Although reluctant, Theo complied with his father's wish although this often led to their relationship becoming strained. In acts of defiance, Theo would often hide in the naturally occurring tunnels underneath his father's home or disappear into the Cutler Mountains on the outskirts of T'Pol's Landing. The latter led to an interest in hiking in his teenage years that would persist in to his time at Starfleet Academy. Because of his father's insistence of a strict program of study, Theo did not have many childhood friends and was very much a solitary child and teenager. Many of his peers viewed him as a loner and avoided prolonged contact with him. | [[File:Madeline Whittaker1.png|thumb|left|250px|Captain Madeline Whittaker, Theo's mother]] | ||

Notably, he was more animated when visiting the ''USS Sparrow'', his mother's long term assignment. Theo could often be found asking questions to the ship's engineering department and it is here that his social skills developed the most, although he was still nervous around children of his own age. His time aboard the ''Sparrow'' would be extremely educational for his Starfleet aspirations and he learnt much about warp and impulse propulsion technology in his teenage years. | Notably, he was more animated when visiting the ''USS Sparrow'', his mother's long term assignment.
