'Father Knows Best'288 viewsRoethlisberger and his wife Brenda moved to the Western Pennsylvania area to be closer to Ben, his wife Ashley and their three kids, Benjamin, Baylee and Bodie, just enjoying quality family time whenever they can. And a lot of that time for Ken and Ben, is spent enjoying the outdoors, something they have done from day one.
“I would say being outdoors is our favorite,†said Roethlisberger. “We golf together. We enjoy that. But hunting and fishing because I think it gets him away from sports. He has taken us on long trips to get away, we went to Alaska, to Brett Keisel’s place in Wyoming. We went to trout streams in Central Pennsylvania. We hunt around here together. Those are when we connect the best.
“When he was a kid it was all sports, things in the yard. It’s nice to get him away from that. That is where we connect the best now.
“We love to fish. I used to do it as a kid. When I grew up, I had two older brothers and our father would take us fly fishing in Michigan in junior high. I learned to do that. We fished when Ben was a kid. When he was in junior high. I took him to Michigan like my dad did with me and he learned to fly fish. That is something our family has done together.â€
Even Ben’s kids are now fishing, although not fly fishing yet, and it makes Ken thrilled to see the tradition passed down.
“It’s special, especially since it’s something different than what he is known for,†said Roethlisberger. “It’s what God has created for us. It’s been special for the whole family. For my dad to teach me, me teach him and him pass it on to his kids, it’s hard to beat that as a father. That is just what you hope for.â€

'Father Knows Best'281 viewsRoethlisberger said when Ben was younger, it was a father/son relationship, something he thought was important. Now, it’s a friendship.
“I was his dad. I disciplined him,†said Roethlisberger. “There was one time he didn’t do well in school and I made him sit out a year of little league. It’s something he still remembers, and I hear him tell his kids the same thing. When you talk to kids, you know they hear you, they just don’t always acknowledge it. A lot of things we say as parents we realize they are being heard. To have him turn around and do that with his kids, it helps me, makes me realize I did a few things right.
“I would give him advice as a kid, and he would ask me for advice. He still does, but they are different things now. There is nothing I can teach him about football. I might say something, why didn’t you do this, or why did you do that, and he will say that’s on me. We don’t talk about football, maybe only one percent of the time. He will call me and ask about gardening, or planting a tree, or raising the kids. We talk about that stuff way more than football.â€

'Father Knows Best'274 viewsThrough the years he has heard the criticism of his son, whether it be after a tough game or just someone questioning if he still has it. He tries not to listen, but as we all know, it’s hard to always ignore.
“I don’t turn on the radio much,†said Roethlisberger. “I will sometimes after games to hear the injures because we care about his teammates. That is the only time we turn it on.
“It’s frustrating. You have to keep in mind everybody has opinions and are entitled to them. I have watched him so many years I know whether he played a good game or not. He knows whether he played a good game or not. It doesn’t always come through to a lot of people watching the game. It’s frustrating, but at the same time I understand. It’s the way people are.â€
