His Dad, George Cooper is a Football coach who, throughout the series, ends up losing his job and does his best to manage expenses. Sheldon’s mom Mary, is a very religious woman who babies her kids more than needed.
His elder brother, Georgie is sort of an airhead who wants to be a model someday. He grows up to be a thick-skulled adult but cares deeply when he feels like it. Sheldon’s fraternal twin, Missy is a charming girl with high emotional intelligence. She often feels left out but is very mature and helps Sheldon at times when his intelligence is not enough.
At the age of 9, he goes to high school and is much smarter than his teachers. Sheldon often shows no emotions and empathy, he also blurts out whatever is on his mind, which gives a comedic theme to the show.
