As a speaker, consultant, businessman and author, South Pasadena resident Brent Hatch is a man of many hats. His success started early on with the attainment of Eagle Scout status, and he went on to become an award winning real estate agent. Hatch’s aspiration to help guide parents in raising their children in a media-dominated world resulted from his horror over the 1999 shootings at Columbine High School. He and his wife Phelicia determined ten tools that effectively open the lines of communication between parents and children and outlined them in the nationally bestselling book, Raising a G-Rated Family in an X-Rated World. The book has been covered by CBS, NBC and radio stations across the nation, and has brought recognition to Hatch and his wife as California Parents of the Year. It recently became the #1 ranked book on Amazon.com’s Parenting and Families category.
In a world where there are 50,000 child predators on MySpace.com at any given time and children are easily exposed to a $15 billion a year porn industry, Hatch teaches parents how to protect their children without locking them up at home. As supplements to his parenting strategies, he created the “Hug Card” and the “Alcohol Breath Detector Card,” which have reached the lives of over 3.5 million people across the nation. In addition to consulting universities, city governments, and parenting organizations across America, he has shared his insights at workplaces to help increase morale, reduce negativity, and inspire teamwork.
Alongside his wife of twenty-one years, Brent Hatch has raised seven children, who are living evidence of the effectiveness of their methods. Notably, his 14-year-old son McKay Hatch, founded the No Cussing Club in 2007, which advocates the disuse of profanity in public spaces. It currently has over 10,000 members, with chapters in all 50 states and 24 countries worldwide. Hatch counts the development and nurturing of his family as his greatest success.
This public event will be held in the Library Community Room. Copies of the book will be available for purchase and signing. No tickets or reservations are necessary.
