    The saddest thing about both Peter and Lois is that they used to just be parodies of sitcom parents like Homer and Marge and just.. over time, they became malevolent instead of just a bit dumb, I even heard that the reason why Meg is their punching bag is because the original voice actress left on bad terms with the team so the team decided to write her into being a punching bag.

      Heard from where? According to interviews, Seth said that the writers had a hard time writing her character due to a lack of knowledge about teenage girls. They then turned her into a punching bag, kinda not knowing what else to do with her. I remember reading an article where Lacey Chabert said she had no ill feelings towards the show and that she left because she had other projects to attend. She even guest starred on an episode of Family Guy a couple years ago.

Doof and Hank would be pretty high on the list, though if the interquels for Avatar catch up to Zuko parenting Izumi, he'll probably take the cake. I actually think Bea should have been third place, considering she hasn't intentionally caused her baby to have defects(like Lois did to Chris) or went to the extremes Linda did.

    - using her as a slave/housekeeper
    - seeing her as a "little pest"
    - emotionally abusing her (mostly neglect)
    - not even giving her an actual bed to sleep on, but a footstool

      I don’t think that’s exactly fair since Horrid Henry is supposed to be a childish representation of the world. Not like Mona the Vampire where it’s explicitly clear the fantasy elements are only in her head, but that the whole world is presented in a way that kids will find more relatable so peoples attributes are exaggerated- down to most kids only being their one personality trait expressed through their nickname lol. So the show is written with the mindset of making the parents unreasonable as that’s how most kids perceive their parents at a young age.
      If that lens wasn’t there, then yeah they’re both pretty terrible to him, but since they’re meant to be stereotypes, I don’t think it’s fair to put them on the same level as the others on the list.

      @@Noteflunked I would kinda say the same because everything in Fairly Odd Parents is so overblown and so over dramatic and so hyperbolic that it’s hard to take it seriously when you need to compare it to other shows that are trying to have realistic depictions of their characters. Horrid Henry is obviously much more realistic in how it presents its characters but it’s still in that general area of being an overly sensationalised child’s view of the world than just a world that happens to be animated like the others.

    To me, the absolute worst thing that Doof's parents did to him has to be Der Kinderlumper. It's one thing to create a Krampus type character to scare their kid into behaving, but what makes it especially horrid is that they ONLY use him to scare Heinz. For his beloved brother, the Kinderlumper is a jovial, loving Santa Claus type character looking out for him and giving him presents.

Not only is she a manipulative criminal like Hoyt, she's an abusive, homewrecking drunk to boot. After getting out of jail for stabbing Hoyt with a fork in a fight that knocked over their trailer home where the three Platters lived, causing Luanne to move into Hank's home in the first place, she attempts to reinsuinate herself in Luanne's life but quickly abandons her again to attach herself to Bill by spending up all his money and essentially engaging in the same manipulative behavior she did with Hoyt. And poor Luanne was too oblivious to see it at first.

    • @SunflowerHeliotrope
      @SunflowerHeliotrope 11 месяцев назад +7

      Absolutely agree, all solid examples! Mrs. Brisby especially, IMHO, because when Secret of NIMH came out (1982), it was really unusual for an animated movie to focus on a single mom. She’s a struggling, recently widowed single mom of four kids, one of whom is seriously ill, and this poor little mouse mom had to face her greatest fears and go to hell and back, all to save her family. She definitely wins my vote!

    Queen Dagmar from Disenchantment is literally one of the most manipulative and evil mothers I have ever seen in media. She literally sold her daughter's soul to the devil and tried to sacrifice her so many times throughout the show. There r so many examples of her cruelty that I could give, and in my opinion she is completely irredeemable and should not have been given the chances that Bean (her daughter) or King Zog (her ex husband) should have given her.

She also manipulated Clay into marrying her. I think the most prominent episode of this neglect is turn the other cheek. In the episode Bloberta only intervenes when she needs more detergent not because he is getting bullied. She could tell him to tell a teacher, but she wants Clay to handle it when she knows what Clay is like.

    Nicole Watterson from 'The Amazing World Of Gumball' isn't the worst cartoon mum, but she is definitely one of them. There are a stupid amount of times where she puts her kids in danger because of how competitive she is. There is an episode where she makes Gumball do incredibly dangerous things to prove that he is a winner, such as: getting him struck by lightning, abandoning him in a desert, getting him beaten up, made him tow a car with his bare hands and nearly killed him in a game of paintball. This was to get him on the top of an achievement list of the fridge.

    • @mightyfilm
      @mightyfilm 11 месяцев назад +21

      Nicole was screwed up terribly by her mother, and the competitiveness is her generational trauma. HOWEVER, she is fiercely defensive and protective of her family, especially her husband Richard. She basically gave up on the life her parents wanted her to have and took up a low paying, thankless job at the Rainbow Factory for him. The Wattersons are a very close knit family, and they truly love each other. Nicole even considers their once pet goldfish her son. Any attempts to get them to be the best they can be is partially out of wanting the best for her family, partially because it's the only form of parenting she knows.

She then decided to help him to make him a "winner", so that he could be proud of himself. She clearly goes too far in the process so that Gumball tells her that he would rather be a carefree disappointment than an obsessive winner. Nicole then realises what she had become, apologizes to him and they reconcile.

Whenever Archer's life is in Jeopardy she does anything to make sure he's okay, litterally bawling her eyes out over him especially when she saw his body in front of her. As an added bonus, when she found out AJ, her own grandchild, was kidnapped she was genuinely devestated about it.

    While the Stotches are… terrible, terrible people, I do give them a lot of credit on this topic for actually caring about Butters. Whenever they think he’s in danger or dead, they are visibly distraught at the prospect for as much as they were abysmal, abusive, neglectful caregivers, they did believe it was in Butters’ best interest. Normally that’s not saying much, but when compared to the other names on this list, it does merit mentioning.
    I mean, when they thought Butters was an unholy hellspawn, they just straight up murdering strangers for the demon to “feed” on. They didn’t hesitate for a second, that their son was more deserving of surviving than random people was a prospect they didn’t question at all. It’s messed up, it’s downright psychopathic for sure, but what you can’t say is that it’s indicative of parents who don’t love their kid, when that’s a level of devotion the others on this list couldn’t even dream of coming close to.

She's constantly lying to Milhouse, emotionally manipulates him on the regular, and uses Milhouse as a pawn against her husband Kirk at most any oppertunity. There have been numerous scenes as well where Luann drops the most embarrassing info within earshot of the other kids, which I'm not convinced is accidental since it tends to make Milhouse cling to her.
    Maude Flanders low-key sucked in the mom department, too, but maybe that's just me? We never saw her in action much as a mom, but in at least three flashback episodes Maude was shown using Rod and Todd as props to boast about how much better of a mom she was compared to Marge. But then it seemed like whenever something came up (sickness, discipline, etc) Maude wasn't shown or mentioned to be involved in her sons' care as if Maude pushed the more unpleasant aspects of parenting off on Ned.

    She didn’t know about Belos’ evil plan, but she knew he had something bad in mind for the people of the Boiling Isles.

I just wish that her story was explored more in the show, perhaps she was like Beatrice horseman in a way in that she was abused too as a child and it carried over to her, I'd also love to see her work to redeem herself and become a better person but that's just my thoughts. but yeah Lois is a HORRIBLE mother in my opinion, like Peter she's a psycho who knows fully well what she's doing hurts her kids and just doesn't care. Hell she even told meg to commit Suicide and was even going to kill one of her kids for something peter did not to mention cheating on him with one of Meg's boyfriends.

    For me Doofersmith is one of rare characters who put in life "i will make my child life better than mine" and it work. the best is when his nemesis is helping his daughter and it is shown that he could be "all evil and bad" but for her he will do all he can to make her life good. He is one of most underrated dad in cartoon history and its kinda sad, but at least he had semi good ending. Tho i would love to see videos like best dads or best moms

    Linda is worst in South Park, because she grounds her son for no reason. That is actually child abuse. She and Steven are abusing butters, that’s why they should have taken butters out of his current home. Linda would have been arrested on child abuse.

      Well Steven would be but I’m pretty sure Linda would be institutionalized. Just look at every line she’s ever had, she’s clearly not sound of mind. She’s definitely certifiably insane. She could also get off on being stupid because she’s clearly not playing with a full deck. So yeah, crazy and dumb Linda Stotch would be hauled off by the men in white coats but Steven Stotch would just go to regular prison and probably be reaching for the soap for the next 10 to 25 years.

    One mom I’m surprised that no one has mentioned is betty smith. We all know that stan’s life was horrific. He’s been subjected to every form of abuse you can think of physical, emotional, psychological, financial, sexual. however because there is so much focus on jack that it’s hard to remember that betty is just as responsible for stan’s issues. She manipulated Stan into doing all his father's duties and being completely dependent on her emotionally. She also tricked Stan into killing his dog, saying he had an incurable illness, but it she actually made him do it because their new apartment building didn't allow dogs. What makes this worse is that despite how self-serving and manipulative unlike with jack the show sticks with the whole stan is always wrong narrative going to far as to have her call him out for clinging to her now that she no longer needs him.
    Francine is this as well but with her its more complicated like with betty she has an unhealthy obsession with steve and competativness with hayley. A big part of it goes back to the stan always being wrong. whenever he tries to take 5 minutes to relax the family devolve into suicidal levels of stupidity and they only do this when its stan. Francine can do her on thing and they would be fine. heck I think the first time they did it was an example of this. Stan can’t read a book but she can go on an expedition to locate a squid. This means that for all the familys complaints they can’t function without stan but can without Francine. Luckily this plot has fallen off a lot more in the later seasons.

In the Thanksgiving episode both parents are freaking out once they realize she is not there and act as one should. In the episode that Miriam takes over for Big Bob, she ends up quitting due to her realization of her miss treatment of Helga. She drops everything she worked so hard for, just to return to her role as Helgas mom. Is Miriam perfect? No she makes mistakes and needs to work out her relationship issues with Big Bob, that cause her to drink in the first place. But at the end of the day Miriam cares alot about Helga.

Jessica Walter, H Jon Benjamin, and Chris Parnell lifted that show to unachievable heights without through their acting. With her gone as the strong link of that trinity, it's just not the same.

    Raygo kiryiun: another mother who is obsessed with experimenting, using her own newborn children as test subjects! When both her children fail at fusing with the life fibers, she dumps them, and as for the remaining child, satsuki….well…if you’ve seen kill la kill you know what I’m referring too..🤢

    I think Rose Quartz/Pink Diamond from Steven Universe deserves a mention. She was pretty terrible, but she didn't really get a chance to be a bad mother to Steven since she kinda had to die to give birth to him. Though, with her track record and how out of touch the other Gems were with raising Steven, I don't think she would be particularly good.

  • @Goleon
    @Goleon 11 месяцев назад +4

    I’m so glad that you mentioned Shelia Broflovski even if it wasn’t as long as I had hoped it be. And tbh I still see her as worst than Butters’ mom cause she actually does care about her son while Shelia doesn’t show any for both of her sons. Plus there’s the fact that Shelia undermines Kyle at every point possible and constantly has him under her thumb as he never really talks back to her and agrees as well as goes along with practically everything she says.
    She won’t even listen to him when he pointed out why she shouldn’t kill Terrence and Philip and when he explained with very good reasons why he didn’t want to play superheroes with his cousin. And that’s another thing. She shows actual and more care to her nephew than her own kids which is so messed up and when I realized that (while playing TFBW) I full on hated her and still hate her to this day. She doesn’t deserve her kids and definitely doesn’t deserve the defense Kyle gives towards her very awful behavior.
    I get that Kyle doesn’t want to be negative about her cause she’s his mom and he does genuinely care about her as a result but when said mom is as horrible and unloving as Shelia is, she should never get a pass for it. Especially since she’s not putting in any effort to change. It says something when Cartman of all people is more willing to change his crappy behavior (for the most part) than Shelia is. I greatly hope for the day Trey and Matt give us an episode that has Kyle finally have enough of his mom’s shittiness and gives her the verbal beating she rightfully deserves.
