Revision as of 00:51, 2 November 2017
Gladys is the mother of Billy and the wife of Harold and is a patient, yet very mentally unstable woman whose condition seems to have been brought on by having to deal with her family.
Personality
Gladys has a severe facial tic, which usually appears when Billy is misbehaving, when her authority is challenged, or whenever Grim is present, and has also developed nervous breakdowns. Despite this, Gladys cares deeply for Billy and Harold, although when Harold gets fired for doing something stupid or whenever Billy is really disobeying her or acting up, she does have large outbursts of rage.
She wants Billy to grow up to be a chiropractor, even though she knows that it is very unlikely to happen. Gladys is a caring mother, a loving wife and a devoted homemaker.
