HOTH: Allen Rogers – Faculty

“I have a five-year-old and one thing I noticed is that it’s made me a much better parent. I understand children better. I kind of did it probably the opposite way most people do. Probably people have children much sooner in life. I’ve had a kid later in life. I kind of can see where kids are going to end up as far as school is and all my planning for his education and his ethics kind of come from that. I work backwards towards him. How much expose him to and how often. It has made me ironically a much better parent. But if I would have been a parent early in life, I think I would have been a more patient teacher, which would be better in some ways.”
