*AbusiveParents: Carl acts like this to Rodney and that usually involves giving him some threats
*AwLookTheyDoLoveEachOther: Megan and Rodney, as was shown in one episode where the former seemed pretty sad that Rodney was going to stay over the Wanda and Darryl's house.
*BigBrotherBully: Rodney is this to Megan, as he picks on and taunts her. He doesn't seem to be this to Shelby, then again, Shelby would probably beat him up.
*CanonForeigner: They haven't had an appearance in the comics.
*CreepyChild: While not exactly creepy, Shelby is definitely weird with his being quiet and penchance for destruction.
*DysfunctionalFamily: Though downplayed, we know the family to be this, as their homelife is chaotic
*OralFixation: Well, not exactly oral but Melinda is never seen without her cigarette.
*ParentsAsPeople: Melinda, as, while she does love her kids, she wishes she to have Wanda's life or she wants the life she had before she had kids.
*TheStoic: Shelby doesn't show any emotions besides usual indifference,annoyance, or a combination of the two. Similarly, his Melinda is the same way except vocally.
*TheUnfavorite: Rodney is clearly not Carl's favorite. This was alluded to in one episode when he started hanging out at the [=MacPhearson=]s house.
*WomenAreWiser: Megan, in a sense, as she's the most well-behaved of the Bitterman children.

!!Bizzy
Zoe's babysitter who appears in the series
-----
*BabysitterFromHell: Averted, when the [=MacPhearson=]s initially thought she was because she allowed her boyfriend over and were proven wrong when she showed herself to be quite responsible.

The eldest child and older daughter. Though about 10 years old, she acts like a spoiled teenager. Frequently bratty and self-absorbed, but less likely to actually make a mess these days than her brother, preferring whining and mocking to actual destruction.
