File:Frank Heffley (Diary Of A Wimpy Kid).png

Frank Heffley is the serious and overactive father of Rodrick, Greg, and Manny Heffley. He is the husband of Susan Heffley and the elder brother of Joe Heffley and Gary Heffley. As Greg Heffley's father, he appears as the main character in the book series but appears as the main antagonist in The Last Straw.

Why He Sucks
Note: This applies ONLY in book series and The Long Haul movie, not the other adaptations such as movie trilogy and upcoming 2021 movie.
 * 1) Let's get that freaking elephant out of the room: He is an incomparably the messiest up parent than Susan, with no sense of love, and the thing he is obsessed with playing sports and some Civil War figurines to STAY away from his family! And also, he is easy to get angry and punishes two older sons, and hates teenagers for havocing his own house.
 * 2) He is very homophobic and misogynistic that he wants his two sons (mostly Greg) to become "manly".
 * 3) *This part is at the worst in the first book of the same name, where Frank and Susan had an argument about "experiencing" the girls' is healthy for boys. But literally won an argument for that.
 * 4) *He even hates wardrobes where Greg loves to float in the Cabin Fever.
 * 5) He is known to be a massive pretender in the entire series:
 * 6) *One word: Racist. He is supposed to like rock-and-roll music, but it turns out that he hated it all over and over again. So what did he do, he made the emo teenagers, who loved Rodrick's music, walk away by playing his classical music so that he  demands them to get away and  never comeback and staying him along with Greg in the mall to never heard his music again!
 * 7) *In The Last Straw, he did not allow Greg to eat some junk foods while he was playing video games, which Frank also hates. But when Greg catches him, he eats some snacks.
 * 8) Just like his third son, Manny. He is a straight-up Karma Houdini that provides to asked Greg that he needs to do some supplies that he wants to in the Cabin Fever, even though he didn't deserve to ask his wife's permission and even granted a lot of his money to make his house even richer.
 * 9) Hee is very unlikeable in Double Down that he grounds Greg for slacking off the bands for petty reasons.
 * 10) He shows a deep hatred towards Grandpa Heffley, his own father that accidentally run over his pet dog, Nutty/freezing his pet cat, Nutty (in the Online Version), and punished him for having a party along with his many wives for trying him to make him and his family happy! THE HECK!
 * 11) He jumps numerous conclusions for that Greg did it.
 * 12) He sends Greg to the military academia is he isn't because he wants to be a good boy, it's just he wants to stay away from him. So it's Rodrick's fault who mess their house.
 * 13) He is the perceived portion of the chew toy victim:
 * 14) *In The Last Straw, he got badly disturbed by two babysitting boys: Darren and Marcus Woodley. He got roughly played by hitting a football on Marcus's stomach, causing him to soak his pants. Which enrages him by bitting on his brother's shoulder, refusing to let it go, and crashes him on his head, busting his camp method between him and Greg.
 * 15) *In Double Down, he gets washed by Greg when he was trying to wash his car.
 * 16) *In The Wrecking Ball, he fell on the table, naked. When he was taking a bath.
 * 17) *He along with his family are suffering a lot of vacuations that they have to in The Long Haul, The Getaway, and The Deep End.
 * 18) *He gets hit by a bunch of marshmallows and burned by one burning marshmallow when Manny is trying to throw it away.
 * 19) And also, he is very selfish, vain, and Gary-Stu-ish he wants Greg and Rodrick to gain muscules, making Greg loathing sports. And he is NOT disappointed.
 * 20) He hates Rowley when accidentally destroys his Civil War set when he was trying to jump with his trampoline. Making Rowley thinks that Greg's parents do not really care about him in Rodrick Rules.
 * 21) He is a massive stressable asshole by calling Greg, "friend" is rather disturbing than funny.
 * 22) In The Old School, he asked that he was bullied by Bill Staples when I was a kid, but he challenged him for that.
 * 23) He watches Greg making a snow slide outside to see someone tripped on it, but he watches him with a very evil stare.
 * 24) In The Hard Luck, he attempts to pull out his one tooth by tying it on the door to violently remove his tooth. Seriously, is that how wants to remove to his tooth to pull over forcefully?!

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) Much like his wife, Susan, he is sadly better in three movie trilogies (especially the upcoming 2021 movie).
 * 2) His design seems nice.
 * 3) He thankfully got a character development in The Deep End.
 * 4) He still cares for his family.
