history ,rhett's father was a fairly wealthy businessman even before he met kristen at the age of thirty-two. she was an elementary school teacher - a bit younger than him at about twenty-seven - who only met him by chance at a book store whilst she was buying some books to read to her students and he was pouring over a science fiction novel while sipping some coffee. the two only hit it off after she approached him, telling the man in whispered words about how she loved the particular book he had chosen. surprised, joseph found himself pulled into conversation.
they started dating. it was sudden, but kristen could not be accused of only going out with him for his money. in fact, by the time their fifth date came around, she still had no idea. but finally, he had to break it to her. kristen was slightly stunned to realize that the man she was dating was apparently rich, but she was hardly going to break up with him for it. actually, a year or so later, they got married, firmly aware of the fact that they'd married for love and not for one's desire for the other's cash.
kristen and joseph lived together for some time before deciding they wanted to try for a child. they attempted from then on and were apparently successful. rhett was born a typical nine months later. overall, he was a good baby, but they did notice that it took him longer than others to learn to do things such as talking, crawling, walking, or even tying his shoe. he was prone to ear infections as a baby, and they often had to take him to the doctor.
throughout adolescence, rhett showed much intelligence. his parents knew he was going to be a bright one when he got older. thing was, he didn't. rhett didn't show much promise throughout kindergarten, often complaining that he couldn't count right like the others kids. he could count, sure. in his mind. but, when the other children started counting their gummy bears for the teacher, he simply couldn't. he'd always mess up. however, first grade was where these difficulties really showed. it was kind of hard on rhett considering his mother was a first grade teacher - not the one to be teaching him obviously, but it was her territory. the pressure was high and that only made things worse. rhett had difficulty reading words. when he tried to explain to their parents that the words got "all jumbled up" when he tried to reach them, they turned back to the doctors.
dyslexic. though it helped joseph immensely to know that his son wasn't just screwed up in the head, he was less accepting of the situation than kristen who encouraged rhett. joseph had figured that rhett would go into business when he grew up... and if he was dyslexic... how exactly would that work? in any case, rhett had already failed the first grade. he was going to be held back while all his friends moved up a grade. it wasn't fair.. but, that was life.
rhett basically grew up with his father breathing down his neck to do good. thing was, if rhett was going to do good, he couldn't have all this pressure on him. it only worsened his reading and writing abilities, and he ended up getting bad grades. when he reached high school, it was no different. but, he coped. and now he's a sophomore. however, dyslexia which lowered his self esteem extremely has humbled any budding arrogance that may have come from an overall wealthy father.
