Personality

Manny Heffley is thought by Greg to be extremely selfish, spoiled, greedy and whiny. Greg believes that his parents treat Manny like a prince. He always gets out of trouble and gets whatever he wants by showing cute or troubled looks or crying. His parents seem to spoil him, which always makes Greg unhappy because he, nor his brother Rodrick, has ever gotten as many privileges as Manny. Manny can't seem to get the concept of potty training; this is mainly because of Uncle Joe (Greg in the film) telling him to watch out for the Potty Monster, which prevented him from ever stepping into the bathroom for six months. According to the first book, Manny is a fan of the television show Sesame Street, especially the C is for Cookie sketch. He also watches a show called "The Snurples", which according to a newspaper sets kids back in social skills and language development. Manny has shown that this is true. He also has no real friends, and when his mom holds playgroups at their house, Manny never plays with the other kids. Although Manny has no real friends, he has many imaginary friends. He uses his imaginary friends to get out of trouble and get extra dessert. Manny is also very intelligent for his age. When his mom let him play on Greg's Net Kritterz account, he figured out how to sell all of his brother's items and change his password.He is also very rich because he has a swear jar in which anybody who says a bad-word infront of him has to put money in the jar and his mom also considers "stupid","jerk" like words also swear words and he has a jar in which he gets payed if he goes to the bathroom without anyone helping him,he has over $150,Rodrick seems to take loans from him.
