Susan Heffley Is Greg, Manny, and Rodrick's Mother. She is married to Frank Heffley. She is a rather loving and caring mother, but she constantly embarrasses Greg and Rodrick, and appears to never care. Susan apparently knows very little about older children and often humiliates and ignores Greg and Rodrick to their dismay. She apparently spoils Manny a lot, what Greg sees as very unfair. She often pushes Greg into certain conflicts, results in much more chaos and embarrassment. In the books, Greg has stated that she used to be a pre-school teacher, and now, she apparently works for the PTA, yet what her position is in that committee remains unknown. She is played by Rachael Harris in the movie.

Personality

In the books, Susan is depicted as ignorant, annoying, over-reactive and clueless. She constantly tries to pull the family together, by getting Frank and Greg accustomed to Rodrick's band, tries to get Greg and Rodrick close to Frank, and tries to get Greg to enjoy reading, but none of her plans ever seem to work, and often end up in rather disastrous consequences for Greg and Rodrick. Also, she always loves to embarrass Greg by either calling him 'Honeybunches", much to Greg's dismay. She constantly ignores Greg, humiliates and embarrasses him mostly all the time through the series. In Rodrick Rules, she humiliates Rodrick by dancing to his heavy metal music, which then gets released as "Dancing Mom" on the Internet, angering Rodrick, and even pushes him to the extent where he hides in his room, waiting for everything to get over.
