Theodore is currently studying in a high school but unfortunately, his parents haven’t revealed where he goes for his education. We assume the reason behind their secrecy is the media because if the media knew where Norman goes to study, people would follow him and ask him good and bad questions that could affect his mental health.

Similarly, the duo hasn’t talked much about their daughter’s education either. Likewise, it doesn’t look like the couple is going to discuss their children’s education with the public anytime soon.

Theodore’s Birth Wasn’t Planned

Norman’s mom accidentally got pregnant with him while his mother and father were on their honeymoon. Seth and Bryce never planned on having a child so soon after their marriage, they wanted to start a family when they were in their thirties.

“I found out I was pregnant seven days after my wedding. I was on my honeymoon with my family. It’s a long story—but yes, I shared my honeymoon with my entire family. I have a heroic husband!.”

She further explained,

“After taking the pregnancy test, I held the paper strip while waiting for the telltale sign to appear and thought, ‘I have to be pregnant! I will not be okay if I am not pregnant”

It doesn’t look like Theodore’s parents regret their decision to have a child.

The condition only got worst and Bryce felt like dying. She said “I’m going to die here, lying next to my newborn son. I am literally going to die tonight.” Similarly, during an interview, Theodore’s mother explained how she felt and even called herself a rotten mother,

” My house was a mess. I believed I was a terrible dog owner. I was certain I was an awful actress; I dreaded a film I was scheduled to shoot only a few weeks after the birth because I could barely focus enough to read the script. And worst of all, I definitely felt I was a rotten mother—not a bad one, a rotten one. Because the truth was, every time I looked at my son, I wanted to disappear.”
