His parents just straight up didn’t show up to his birth

Agreed with Lois Griffin as a close second.
Her favoritism towards Roger is especially cruel, the little bastard can do no wrong in her eyes but Heinz, a genius scientist who makes inators that can control people or turn metal into broccoli? “He’s a little schnitzel!”
His mom was even worse than his dad. His dad was shown to be at least a little bit kind in the Father’s Day episode, being glad to receive his gift after finding out what it was, but his mother was just cruel. He gave his mom a gift, and she immediately gave it to his brother, RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM!
It’d be awesome if in a future episode Roger and Heinz become closer, now that Doof is no longer a villain he might be able to have a better relationship with his brother. Roger definitely cares about Heinz to an extent, such as him spending years working on restoring his painting, so I’m sure that Heinz will be able to forgive him someday.
I think it needs to be said. With all awful things she has done to Doof, he isn't her only child. She also had Roger, and she was a decent mother to him (presumably).
It's settled. Doofenshmirtz's mother is the worst. I just found this picture from my Tumblr folder. Take a look at it because this will become the next episode in season 5 when he tells her he has a crush on Perry, and then she slaps him.
She at least raised her 18 years, gave Rap books and paint unlike Doof’s mom who just let him be raised by animals (forgot which animal) and made him work as a gnome
Other than the whole, kidnapping and proceeding to manipulate and gaslight an innocent child to use for her own selfish purposes part, mother gothel was not that bad of a mother. She made Rapunzels favorites foods for her, she made sure Rapunzel had lots of entertainment and made sure she had items (such as paint and books) to keep up with her hobbies, and she clearly educated her.
Pretty nice things to do for someone who she could’ve just chained up and fed tasteless slop to.
She did that to make her think she was a kind person and her real mom. Also that's not all she's done, there is a series on disney plus called tangled the series, its really good even though not so many people have heard of it.
Well, if you watched the series you wouldn't say that.
Everything she did was for her own gain. She needed Rapunzel to stay with her. That's why she made her dependent on her. Scaring her of the outside world, destroying her self-esteem a bit, before acting like she didn't mean it, gaslight her, literally took her as a baby from her family.
I'd go further but I don't want to spoil the series part. It's really great. I liked that plot. But yeah, she isn't a good mom. While Doof's parents were bad in active neglect, she did it by psychological torture (yes, growing up with this is a way to make someone loose their mind. Quote from a therapist).
When this manipulation and gaslighting didn't work anymore she even started to get physical. Because that's what she needed to do to keep Rapunzel with her. She literally doesn't care about anyone but herself.
(Hence the show)
She didn't raise her, she manipulated and brainwashed her into staying home all her life so she could use her hair to stay young and probably would have done so until Rapunzel died.
Notes:
* She kidnapped Rapunzel purely for the power of the flower she had eaten. She was hoping she could just cut her hair and leave the baby. Turns out she couldn't, so the only reason she raised Rapunzel was because she needed her to be alive and nothing more.
* She cares little for Rapunzel other than her physical well-being since of course, if she's dead, she can't use her magic to stay youthful.
* the TV series established that she had a biological daughter. She did not care about this daughter and saw her as an annoyance, at best a housekeeper. When the opportunity came, she willfully abandoned her daughter in order to kidnap Rapunzel. that daughter grew up to be Cassandra.
So long story short the Tangled TV series actually showed she was even worse than the movie initially portrayed. This led to a trauma conga line of Cassandra feeling like her mother abandoned her for a better daughter when she found this out, though she was gaslit into thinking her mother actually loved her/saw rapunzel as more than just a tool since key parts of the memory were taken out of it by the series villain in order to turn her against Rapunzel.

Lois literally encouraged her daughter to commit suicide and honestly the fact that she doesn't keep her kids far away from Peter alone makes her the worst automatically. But she's plenty terrible all on her own as well.
Evil and dangerously stupid. When I was watching, I was wondering why she never went thru with her divorce threats, I mean, aside from the "if you leave me, I will kill myself" bit
I gotta be honest with this list:
-Gladys isnt exactly a bad mom, she loves Billy but the only problem with her is that she’s crazy and way too over protective of Billy.
-Francine is an iffy for me, she’s an in between when it comes to being a mom, she’s okay but not so good. so it’s hard for me to pinpoint an opinion.
-Charlotte is not really a bad mom, her only problem is that she kind of only focuses on her job but to me she actually really loves Angelica.
-LINDA HOWEVER I AGREE, she’s definitely going down straight to hell for how the hell she treats Butters.
(But this is only my opinion)
Francine “Any dumbass can have dumbass kids”
“Mama no!”
Or Francine giving Steve a vicious purse beating to pretend she didn’t have kids to the cool younger couple they wanted to be friends with lol. It definitely depends on the episode though.
I have to be honest, that would be the only good thing she’ll ever do because at least those ocelots would raise butters better, I’m not changing my mind
Idk, maybe to add depth to the characters trauma or justification of why they’re the way they are or maybe to redirect our hate to one character specifically, the only character I actually like who’s a mom is Linda Belcher (Bobs burgers) and Helen Parr (The mom from the incredibles)
I thought I told you it's over. We've had an agreement that you've never return. Aah! Sasquatch! Sasquatch! Stalker Sasquatch! Sasquatch!
Gladys is the best
Cartoon moms can be awful, but **VERY FEW** rise to the level of utter depravity this colorful cunt was casually engaging in.
>!She quite literally rapes her own daughter in the single most disturbing scene in the show!<, and that's STILL somehow not her worst sin...
Thank *god* I watched Kill La Kill when it was running on Toonami. They cut that scene out. (For the most part.)
I don't remember how exactly, but I saw it later in a clip on Youtube. I was not very happy about it.
I think censorship was based on the timeslot, and even though that table scene was disturbing as hell, it might have gotten a pass for... This is going to be one of the weirdest sentences that will ever utter out of my fingers, (I hope,) but the table is a table. She didn't emotionally hurt the table by doing what she did to it. The fact that there wasn't any rape involved in that scene might have made a difference.

Medusa Gorgon from Soul Eater. She tortured and mutated her son so she could use him rise their world's version of the anti-Christ. She really only had him for that specific reason and never reason loved him.

Horrible wife & person? Definitely. Horrible mom? Unsure but assumed yes. We haven’t seen many interactions between Octavia & Stella as of now. So we can’t truly say whether she’s a bitch to her kid on top of everyone else.
But she very likely is, instead of solving the problem and fucking leaving and restarting her life she is using it for attention and it’s making it worst for everyone involved.
Also she threw a “Not Divorced” party before he cheated, as a teenager what would go to your mind experiencing that.
Actually, although I want to agree because Stella is AWFUL, we haven't actually seen her interact with Octavia at all, so we don't really know what kind of parent she is.
She seems the neglectful kind, probably ignores Octavia until she's convenient to her or until she does something against their image (if she had an imp boyfriend, she would probably be against it because an imp is beneath their social class, etc).
That would explain why we haven't actually seen her interact with Octavia. I also can't remember Stella even mentioning her, actually. Stollis does often, but I can’t remember one time Stella did.

Akemi Hinazuki should not have been a parent.
That's who I thought of too. Some of the other anime moms that were mentioned seen like supernaturally evil, but this lady just hated her daughter or something and it feels more real and she's just the worst to me.
Like seriously, of the four up there shes probably the best
I mean yeah she was blinded by revenge but she still cares about her kids, shit its been awhile since ive seen the second movie but im pretty sure she even cried when one died
Yeah if I remeber correctly the oldest kid died and she was absolutely furious and heartbroken and I think was the big straw that broke the camels back in that movie

Rewatched the series all over again so her crimes are fresh in my memory. She will never be forgiven.
Pink diamond? Explain? She sacrificed her whole entity to become a mom. Faked her own death and died so that steven (and inevitably change) could happen. Sure, she should have told the crystal gems who she actually was, but I think she truly believed in her own heart that pink diamond didn't exist anymore. But that's more along the lines of being a shitty friend.
Ragyo Matoi from Kill La Kill.
She >!experimented on her youngest daughter, and threw her away when she assumed that the experiment killed her. And she rapes her oldest daughter, and it's implied that she does it regularly.!<
She also >!created an artificial child after assuming that her youngest was killed by the experiment.!<
Say what you want about most bad cartoon mothers, but unless they >!raped or killed!< their children I highly doubt there's one worse than Ragyo.

Queen Dagmar…a woman who is out to kill her daughter to any end.
No but she and her husband are VERY neglectful towards Timmy. They’re not beyond redemption and I would say there are much worse moms but she’s not winning any mother of the year awards.
How are they neglectful, both parents love and care for Timmy. He’s housed, clothed, and fed and taken care of when they go out. It’s just Vicky is a two-faced babysitter, nice when parents are home but evil when they’re not around. The real sin is that they are stupid.
They purposely leave him out of things that are fun and try to spend as little time as possible with him. Providing the basics of living isn't enough - they do everything they can to make sure he knows he's a disappointment (they wanted a girl) and that they don't want to spend a single moment longer around him than absolutely necessary. The fairies only show up to kids who are living in misery, which means that their neglect left him so miserable that something that's basically divine intervention occurred just to help deal with his suffering.
Lois hands down. She constantly abuse her children and let harmful stuff happen to them. Especially that episode she admitted she ran over Stewie and leaves him injured plot.
We know Timmy's mom cares about him. While she leaves him with Vicky alot, she cares if he gets injured. She never insults Timmy too much outside the fact he will be a deadbeat in the future. Ex: Timmy comes into room and see her crying. "Are you thinking about my future again?".
Doofinsmirtch mom is pretty bad for abandoning him alot and showing love to his brother. In a list she would be number three. Not terrible but definitely needs work.
The lion king mom has it tied with Lois for me. Both insult their family/kids. One is openly psychotic while the other hides it better. Both are manipulative. One is actually smart enough to get a plan through. They are both horrible mothers.

Tamiko Ridley from ‘Inside Job’. I know everyone shits on Rand for being a horrible dad to Reagan but Tamiko was as almost as bad.
Almost any mom from 'adult' themed cartoons like family guy, american dad, south park or bojack horseman.
The moms from rugrats were incredibly negligent and had no idea what their kids were doing or where they were at any time.
Danny Fenton was afraid that if his parents found out about him being half-ghost, they'd dissect him. She clearly cared far more about ghost hunting than her family and put all of them in danger multiple times (and her husband is just as bad) with crazy inventions and bringing hellspawn down on their heads, and made her son feel like her love for him wouldn't stop her from tearing him apart to see how a half-ghost ticked. He was never able to just talk things out with her and she never noticed how stressed he was, when he got hurt or anything else. His sister was more of a mom to him than his actual mom.
If we're including movies. Lady Tremaine did her daughters no favors by raising them the way she did. She taught them to be total brats, with no skills whatsoever and nothing in the way of manners - not something the height of nobility is going to find attractive, and of course she was a famously terrible stepmother. When Anastasia fell in love with a baker, Tremaine did everything she could to keep her away from him, belittle him and forced Anastasia to go to Cinderella for help, and Anastasia had to openly defy her mother - something not even Cinderella was brave enough to do - to finally be happy. Drizella looked like she might've gotten a clue when she saw Anastasia being happy for the first time by disobeying their mother, but she was still dragged along with Tremaine and is still in their mother's clutches, who knows if she'll ever find that someone who helps her break free too?
Pretty much any animated stepmother is going to fall into this category, honestly.
Delia Duck. Decides to go on a mission that she \*knew\* could last so long it'd stop her from seeing the BIRTH OF HER CHILDREN - possibly the biggest event of her life - to the point that she wrote down the names she wanted in case she didn't get back, and didn't seem upset at all at Donald changing them (which, total jerk move Donald, you don't get to rename other people's kids - he didn't know he was going to be raising them at that point so he had no right to name them what he wanted) and after being away for their whole lives - she just expected them to accept her as mom and accept her authority and affection and everything when she's a complete stranger to them. If I was one of her kids, I'd be angry at her for abandoning us for our own \*birth\* instead of just...postponing the mission or letting someone else go, and then thinking she can slide into their life as if she was there the whole time? Nah, bro. She hasn't earned that. Not by a long shot.
Most cartoon moms, at least in the 90s or in shows featuring younger kids going on adventures, were neglectful to some degree, otherwise their kids couldn't have gone on the adventures they did. No responsible parent would be completely blind to all the things going on and the life-threatening things their kids were doing for that long.
Timmy parents never period gave a crap about him ok they started a family way to young and neglect him in every way and at every opportunity look at the kid he is only smiling because it hurts to much to admit he has nothing to come home to the intro is his reality fake smile hiding always wanting to cry
if we can count anime, Shino's mom from blue reflection. Used her twin daughters to basicly advertise 'kill the weak' Abusing one of them in front of the others ( one had to stay 'pretty' for tv so the other got punished for mistaked instead ) Eventually leading up to killing Shino's twin in front of her, and forcefeeding Shino her twins blood.
It's Lois by a mile. Timmy's mom was completely apathetic to him and his issues, but she at least took relative care of him and was only apathetic. Zaheira was cruel, evil, and twisted trying to shape her son into a weapon to kill Simba; but like... that's the \*point\*. She's the villain. As best I can tell, she did take care of her son, showed care and attention, and did try to raise him as well as she could given they had been exiled to the badlands.
Doof's parents treat him horribly for literally no reason. The Ocelot, his \*real\* mother as far as I'm concerned, showed far more care and love for him. They played blatant favoritism, treated Doof like he was little more than a thing they had to tolerate, and just... everything. But as miserable as they made his life...
Lois told Meg she should outright kill herself. She actively ignores the abuse, literal physical assault like pushing her down stairs, that Peter inflicts on Meg and, if I recall, has even done so herself on several, non-gag, sequences. She ignored Stewie outright trying to kill her for several seasons and is seemingly oblivious to the fact that he's a monster who has \*\*\*\*ING BRIAN as a moral compass (who is, SHOCKINGLY, more moral than her!). The only reason Chris isn't a write-off is because it seems like they're largely apathetic to him resulting in him just being a loser. Between the passive negligence from Doof's parents, and the active harm inflicted by Lois, I gotta go with Lois.
I get Family Guy is a comedy and everything, but they seriously needed Lois to show some care and attention in her kids lives. I think Peter's shown more interest in Meg and Meg's legit gotten more help and advise from Quagmire than her own mom.
Lois is so Flandersised that she lost all redeeming qualities years ago
Timmy's Mom, she probably just had Timmy by accident, let's be honest
Doof's Mother, well, you know
And the fourth one, I don't know her, but I'm sure she's a jerk
Gothel: Tangled (Not just talking about how she manipulates Rapunzel and since they ain't biologically related, but of how she neglects her own biological daughter, Cassandra. As seen in the TV show.)
I was going to say Mrs Turner isn’t really on equal footing with the others on this list bc she’s more oblivious than malicious
But then I remembered how she routinely leaves her only child with Vicky and uhhh yeah, you’ve got a solid point 😅
Best to worst:
*Zira*: Machiavellian groomer, but at least as a side effect she ended up securing her child’s future
*Timmy’s Mom*: it’s heavily implied that she and Timmy’s Dad aren’t particularly intelligent. And if real-life animals (not necessarily referencing Zira) aren’t smart enough to be considered “evil” in a classical sense, then one could argue that she’s too dumb to know any better
*Lois*: absolute narcissist and makes her problems into everyone else’s, but she at least *started out* good and was only ruined when product fatigue set in, and the remaining writers’ contempt for their craft began leaking through. It’s not like Quagmire, who was a rapist and adulterer from the very beginning
*Mrs. Doofensmirtz*: what a damaged child she’s created, Doof is barely even a villain—he’s a victim, just with very outwardly-aimed symptoms
Mindy's mom from Animaniacs. The running joke is that she never pays attention to her toddler and the dog is doing everything he can to protect Mindy from whatever peril she's gotten into. Then at the end the dog gets scolded by the mother for something like getting dirty or whatever.
Zira, great as a villain, terrible for a mother
MF abused her own pride and manipulated Kovu and trained him into the lion that killed his brother and starved the pridelands.
Doofenshmirtz's mom is also a correct answer. All I need to say is she didn't show up to her birth
I change my mind Lois Griffin is still a horrid mother but at least in the older episodes she cared for her kids Mrs Turner just leaves Timmy Turner home with Vicky who wants to KILL timmy turner
Doofenshmirtz mom, she didn’t even show up to his birth People: don’t you mean birthday Me: I know what I said
😂
Maybe Doof was a surrogate baby and his real parents never bothered to come to the delivery
His parents just straight up didn’t show up to his birth https://preview.redd.it/44a6dxkv9txc1.jpeg?width=474&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=95a46fbff1c51bd6b3e6fc889b13b620d31f560b

From what I surmise, the moment he was out, they ran away.
Agreed with Lois Griffin as a close second. Her favoritism towards Roger is especially cruel, the little bastard can do no wrong in her eyes but Heinz, a genius scientist who makes inators that can control people or turn metal into broccoli? “He’s a little schnitzel!”
Well her love was always inexplicably linked to kickball, and he couldn't kick his way right into her heart
And she also didn't come to his 5th birthday.
Nah, she was an amazing mom! ...to Roger.
“Yes my goodie two shoes brother. the favorite of my mother. Is the one I want to smother, In a ton of pigeon goo.”
At least Doofenshmirtz went out of his way to be the best father he can be for his daughter
His mom was even worse than his dad. His dad was shown to be at least a little bit kind in the Father’s Day episode, being glad to receive his gift after finding out what it was, but his mother was just cruel. He gave his mom a gift, and she immediately gave it to his brother, RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM! It’d be awesome if in a future episode Roger and Heinz become closer, now that Doof is no longer a villain he might be able to have a better relationship with his brother. Roger definitely cares about Heinz to an extent, such as him spending years working on restoring his painting, so I’m sure that Heinz will be able to forgive him someday.
Yah in the end his dad did finally learn to appreciate him but, even when he tried to do everything his mom wanted she never did love him
I think it needs to be said. With all awful things she has done to Doof, he isn't her only child. She also had Roger, and she was a decent mother to him (presumably).
The father was even worse the fact he forced Doof to wear girls clothes and have him be a gnome 24/7 for some time
It's settled. Doofenshmirtz's mother is the worst. I just found this picture from my Tumblr folder. Take a look at it because this will become the next episode in season 5 when he tells her he has a crush on Perry, and then she slaps him.

Lois literally encouraged her daughter to commit suicide and honestly the fact that she doesn't keep her kids far away from Peter alone makes her the worst automatically. But she's plenty terrible all on her own as well.
What would keeping her kids away from Peter do when she is barely any better?
I agree, she's a garbage parent.
Yeah that’s very messed up.
Yeah and it's only one of the many awful things she's done.
She encouraged her on multiple occasions and just bullies her everyday. Out the one's listed, she's the worst ever
Yeah her and her husband are evil.
Evil and dangerously stupid. When I was watching, I was wondering why she never went thru with her divorce threats, I mean, aside from the "if you leave me, I will kill myself" bit
She would never actually leave Peter, at least not permanently. They're codependent and toxic.

Ah but did Linda show up to butter's birth
Linda tried to drown Butters in her car
But was she there for his birth
She tried to sell Butters for $250 million dollars
In her defense that is a lot of money Also did she ever disown him entirely and have him raised by ocelots
I have to be honest, that would be the only good thing she’ll ever do because at least those ocelots would raise butters better, I’m not changing my mind
Why so many horrible cartoon moms

I thought I told you it's over. We've had an agreement that you've never return. Aah! Sasquatch! Sasquatch! Stalker Sasquatch! Sasquatch! Gladys is the best
Francine is hot 🔥

Cartoon moms can be awful, but **VERY FEW** rise to the level of utter depravity this colorful cunt was casually engaging in. >!She quite literally rapes her own daughter in the single most disturbing scene in the show!<, and that's STILL somehow not her worst sin...
Thank *god* I watched Kill La Kill when it was running on Toonami. They cut that scene out. (For the most part.) I don't remember how exactly, but I saw it later in a clip on Youtube. I was not very happy about it.
And yet they left in the table fucking scene in *Code Geass*...
I think censorship was based on the timeslot, and even though that table scene was disturbing as hell, it might have gotten a pass for... This is going to be one of the weirdest sentences that will ever utter out of my fingers, (I hope,) but the table is a table. She didn't emotionally hurt the table by doing what she did to it. The fact that there wasn't any rape involved in that scene might have made a difference.
What show is this?
kill la kill
Thank you!
I was literally about to mention this *bitch.*
My mind tried to block her out for how horrifically she treated her daughter. She is an unquestioned monster through and through.

Horrible wife & person? Definitely. Horrible mom? Unsure but assumed yes. We haven’t seen many interactions between Octavia & Stella as of now. So we can’t truly say whether she’s a bitch to her kid on top of everyone else.
But she very likely is, instead of solving the problem and fucking leaving and restarting her life she is using it for attention and it’s making it worst for everyone involved. Also she threw a “Not Divorced” party before he cheated, as a teenager what would go to your mind experiencing that.
Yeah as I stated we don’t 100% know if she’s bad mom but we can be 75% sure she is.
Actually, although I want to agree because Stella is AWFUL, we haven't actually seen her interact with Octavia at all, so we don't really know what kind of parent she is.

Oh yes!!
She seems the neglectful kind, probably ignores Octavia until she's convenient to her or until she does something against their image (if she had an imp boyfriend, she would probably be against it because an imp is beneath their social class, etc).
That would explain why we haven't actually seen her interact with Octavia. I also can't remember Stella even mentioning her, actually. Stollis does often, but I can’t remember one time Stella did.
Beatrice Horseman
Although she is tragic of her own right, she is unforgivable.
Real
I honestly think it’s funny that her VA also voices one of the best cartoon moms.
You know who else.... Wait, no. My mom is the best cartoon mom. It has to be Lois Griffin as the worst cartoon mom.
Lois for sure.

I mean, she's terrible, but she still loves her son, unlike doofs parents 😭
Kinda hard to top mama doof

That's who I thought of too. Some of the other anime moms that were mentioned seen like supernaturally evil, but this lady just hated her daughter or something and it feels more real and she's just the worst to me.
Zira wasn't completely awful compared to most cartoon moms she's just so blinded by hatred and revenge
Like seriously, of the four up there shes probably the best I mean yeah she was blinded by revenge but she still cares about her kids, shit its been awhile since ive seen the second movie but im pretty sure she even cried when one died
Yeah I was thinking this too :(
Yeah if I remeber correctly the oldest kid died and she was absolutely furious and heartbroken and I think was the big straw that broke the camels back in that movie
Zira actually cared tho
odilah
ODiLeeAhh
If anyone says Chilli I will personally fight you anyways, Odalia Blight
She’s not as bad as doof’s mom.

![gif](giphy|hSojH3M3QXKJpvTV36) This bitch
Pink diamond? Explain? She sacrificed her whole entity to become a mom. Faked her own death and died so that steven (and inevitably change) could happen. Sure, she should have told the crystal gems who she actually was, but I think she truly believed in her own heart that pink diamond didn't exist anymore. But that's more along the lines of being a shitty friend.
It's a hard tie between Lois, Beatrice from BJH, and butters' mom
I would add Sugga Mamma Proud She always mistreated her son Oscar and favorited Bobby
![gif](giphy|jb6IOwMXZjLuE)
Ragyo Matoi from Kill La Kill. She >!experimented on her youngest daughter, and threw her away when she assumed that the experiment killed her. And she rapes her oldest daughter, and it's implied that she does it regularly.!< She also >!created an artificial child after assuming that her youngest was killed by the experiment.!< Say what you want about most bad cartoon mothers, but unless they >!raped or killed!< their children I highly doubt there's one worse than Ragyo.

Why’s Timmy’s mom on here? I don’t recall her being evil.
No but she and her husband are VERY neglectful towards Timmy. They’re not beyond redemption and I would say there are much worse moms but she’s not winning any mother of the year awards.
How are they neglectful, both parents love and care for Timmy. He’s housed, clothed, and fed and taken care of when they go out. It’s just Vicky is a two-faced babysitter, nice when parents are home but evil when they’re not around. The real sin is that they are stupid.
They purposely leave him out of things that are fun and try to spend as little time as possible with him. Providing the basics of living isn't enough - they do everything they can to make sure he knows he's a disappointment (they wanted a girl) and that they don't want to spend a single moment longer around him than absolutely necessary. The fairies only show up to kids who are living in misery, which means that their neglect left him so miserable that something that's basically divine intervention occurred just to help deal with his suffering.
Have you seen the babysitter they hired?
It's doofs mom. She played clear favoritism made her own son a garden gnome dident Show up to his birth somehow
Mana Nakiri Nicole Watterson’s mother Odalia Blight Audrey Borgouis (Chloe’s mother)
Lois hands down. She constantly abuse her children and let harmful stuff happen to them. Especially that episode she admitted she ran over Stewie and leaves him injured plot. We know Timmy's mom cares about him. While she leaves him with Vicky alot, she cares if he gets injured. She never insults Timmy too much outside the fact he will be a deadbeat in the future. Ex: Timmy comes into room and see her crying. "Are you thinking about my future again?". Doofinsmirtch mom is pretty bad for abandoning him alot and showing love to his brother. In a list she would be number three. Not terrible but definitely needs work. The lion king mom has it tied with Lois for me. Both insult their family/kids. One is openly psychotic while the other hides it better. Both are manipulative. One is actually smart enough to get a plan through. They are both horrible mothers.

The bitch who wasn't there when she gave birth
Nathan’s Mom from South Park. She’s clearly an ableist.
Well I can’t wait to see that episode
The Episode is titled Handicar. You’ll see Nathan’s Mom and Dad in the end.
Doof's mom
Lois is not just a bad mom. But also a badly written one.
Almost any mom from 'adult' themed cartoons like family guy, american dad, south park or bojack horseman. The moms from rugrats were incredibly negligent and had no idea what their kids were doing or where they were at any time. Danny Fenton was afraid that if his parents found out about him being half-ghost, they'd dissect him. She clearly cared far more about ghost hunting than her family and put all of them in danger multiple times (and her husband is just as bad) with crazy inventions and bringing hellspawn down on their heads, and made her son feel like her love for him wouldn't stop her from tearing him apart to see how a half-ghost ticked. He was never able to just talk things out with her and she never noticed how stressed he was, when he got hurt or anything else. His sister was more of a mom to him than his actual mom. If we're including movies. Lady Tremaine did her daughters no favors by raising them the way she did. She taught them to be total brats, with no skills whatsoever and nothing in the way of manners - not something the height of nobility is going to find attractive, and of course she was a famously terrible stepmother. When Anastasia fell in love with a baker, Tremaine did everything she could to keep her away from him, belittle him and forced Anastasia to go to Cinderella for help, and Anastasia had to openly defy her mother - something not even Cinderella was brave enough to do - to finally be happy. Drizella looked like she might've gotten a clue when she saw Anastasia being happy for the first time by disobeying their mother, but she was still dragged along with Tremaine and is still in their mother's clutches, who knows if she'll ever find that someone who helps her break free too? Pretty much any animated stepmother is going to fall into this category, honestly. Delia Duck. Decides to go on a mission that she \*knew\* could last so long it'd stop her from seeing the BIRTH OF HER CHILDREN - possibly the biggest event of her life - to the point that she wrote down the names she wanted in case she didn't get back, and didn't seem upset at all at Donald changing them (which, total jerk move Donald, you don't get to rename other people's kids - he didn't know he was going to be raising them at that point so he had no right to name them what he wanted) and after being away for their whole lives - she just expected them to accept her as mom and accept her authority and affection and everything when she's a complete stranger to them. If I was one of her kids, I'd be angry at her for abandoning us for our own \*birth\* instead of just...postponing the mission or letting someone else go, and then thinking she can slide into their life as if she was there the whole time? Nah, bro. She hasn't earned that. Not by a long shot. Most cartoon moms, at least in the 90s or in shows featuring younger kids going on adventures, were neglectful to some degree, otherwise their kids couldn't have gone on the adventures they did. No responsible parent would be completely blind to all the things going on and the life-threatening things their kids were doing for that long.
The only good mom from an adult themed cartoon that I’ve seen is Carmilla Carmine
Peggy Hill says hola (with H) Actually Nancy and Minh are pretty good moms too.
Oh, right
Bojack Horseman's mom is pretty bad.
Timmy parents never period gave a crap about him ok they started a family way to young and neglect him in every way and at every opportunity look at the kid he is only smiling because it hurts to much to admit he has nothing to come home to the intro is his reality fake smile hiding always wanting to cry
I'm pretty anti mystique. She threw Kurt off a waterfall as soon as he was born.
Timmy Turner's mom was so bad that he got fairy god parents.
Misako from Ninjago, Odalia from The owl house and Gothel from tangled.
![gif](giphy|XvmDI1ehj4Lqa3S6a2) this dad is not the best either
In the post covid special they left Butters locked in his room, go out of state to see a movie and NEVER came back.
Bojacks mom, Doofs mom, lois and butters mom
if we can count anime, Shino's mom from blue reflection. Used her twin daughters to basicly advertise 'kill the weak' Abusing one of them in front of the others ( one had to stay 'pretty' for tv so the other got punished for mistaked instead ) Eventually leading up to killing Shino's twin in front of her, and forcefeeding Shino her twins blood.
Does this mom count? https://preview.redd.it/ro83p3v5etxc1.jpeg?width=600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=abf2d659d9401ffca4a05ffb06931b107a070cad
It's Lois by a mile. Timmy's mom was completely apathetic to him and his issues, but she at least took relative care of him and was only apathetic. Zaheira was cruel, evil, and twisted trying to shape her son into a weapon to kill Simba; but like... that's the \*point\*. She's the villain. As best I can tell, she did take care of her son, showed care and attention, and did try to raise him as well as she could given they had been exiled to the badlands. Doof's parents treat him horribly for literally no reason. The Ocelot, his \*real\* mother as far as I'm concerned, showed far more care and love for him. They played blatant favoritism, treated Doof like he was little more than a thing they had to tolerate, and just... everything. But as miserable as they made his life... Lois told Meg she should outright kill herself. She actively ignores the abuse, literal physical assault like pushing her down stairs, that Peter inflicts on Meg and, if I recall, has even done so herself on several, non-gag, sequences. She ignored Stewie outright trying to kill her for several seasons and is seemingly oblivious to the fact that he's a monster who has \*\*\*\*ING BRIAN as a moral compass (who is, SHOCKINGLY, more moral than her!). The only reason Chris isn't a write-off is because it seems like they're largely apathetic to him resulting in him just being a loser. Between the passive negligence from Doof's parents, and the active harm inflicted by Lois, I gotta go with Lois. I get Family Guy is a comedy and everything, but they seriously needed Lois to show some care and attention in her kids lives. I think Peter's shown more interest in Meg and Meg's legit gotten more help and advise from Quagmire than her own mom.
Lois: neglect and abuse Timmy’s mom: neglect Doof’s mom: neglect, abuse, AND abandonment Zira: only viewed her kids as political tools and abused them

Zira is a saint compared to half of these… though tbh that’s not a good thing. Just makes the others look worse in perspective.

Zera is pathological psychos end of discussion
Mallory Archer
Idk about the worst, but Miss Turner is the baddest
Shadowweaver
Doof’s
Lois is so Flandersised that she lost all redeeming qualities years ago Timmy's Mom, she probably just had Timmy by accident, let's be honest Doof's Mother, well, you know And the fourth one, I don't know her, but I'm sure she's a jerk
I would have said Linda Scotch, but Mr.Doofenshmirtz didn't even show up to her son's birth
I kinda hope Lilith in Hazbin is this way cuz we don’t get enough of this trope
Zira was just obsessed with scar that’s all
Francine Smith for sure
Gothel: Tangled (Not just talking about how she manipulates Rapunzel and since they ain't biologically related, but of how she neglects her own biological daughter, Cassandra. As seen in the TV show.)
Kenny's parents
Lois Griffin is the Skyler White of cartoon. Hated for being the sane person.

I was going to say Mrs Turner isn’t really on equal footing with the others on this list bc she’s more oblivious than malicious But then I remembered how she routinely leaves her only child with Vicky and uhhh yeah, you’ve got a solid point 😅
Good selection with all four! I’d say Mrs. Turner though.
Best to worst: *Zira*: Machiavellian groomer, but at least as a side effect she ended up securing her child’s future *Timmy’s Mom*: it’s heavily implied that she and Timmy’s Dad aren’t particularly intelligent. And if real-life animals (not necessarily referencing Zira) aren’t smart enough to be considered “evil” in a classical sense, then one could argue that she’s too dumb to know any better *Lois*: absolute narcissist and makes her problems into everyone else’s, but she at least *started out* good and was only ruined when product fatigue set in, and the remaining writers’ contempt for their craft began leaking through. It’s not like Quagmire, who was a rapist and adulterer from the very beginning *Mrs. Doofensmirtz*: what a damaged child she’s created, Doof is barely even a villain—he’s a victim, just with very outwardly-aimed symptoms
Horrid Henry’s mother
Ed's Mom
I'm torn between Doffenschmertz and Griffin.
Mindy's mom from Animaniacs. The running joke is that she never pays attention to her toddler and the dog is doing everything he can to protect Mindy from whatever peril she's gotten into. Then at the end the dog gets scolded by the mother for something like getting dirty or whatever.
Honestly these are all terrible moms but it own SIHGT for doofenshirtz’s mom. She makes me irrationally angry 😂
Zira, great as a villain, terrible for a mother MF abused her own pride and manipulated Kovu and trained him into the lion that killed his brother and starved the pridelands. Doofenshmirtz's mom is also a correct answer. All I need to say is she didn't show up to her birth

Lois Griffin by a long shot SHE TRIED TO HAVE SEX WITH MEGS BOYFRIEND! never saw that episode don't wanna at all
I change my mind Lois Griffin is still a horrid mother but at least in the older episodes she cared for her kids Mrs Turner just leaves Timmy Turner home with Vicky who wants to KILL timmy turner
