Violet Plunkett

Violet Plunkett is the daughter of Christy Plunkett, granddaughter of Bonnie Plunkett, the half-sister of Roscoe Plunkett, the biological mother of Gweneth Taylor and a main character in seasons 1-4 of Mom. She is portrayed by Sadie Calvano. Her character was terribly scripted and fans marked her as the worse character out of the whole series.

Why She Sucks

 * 1) Of course, a lot of us had rotten childhoods, that doesn't give her the right to be a rotten little pissant her whole life.
 * 2) She is a liar and a user.
 * 3) *She lied to Gregory about having had a baby and conned her first boyfriend into coming back so she could leech off of him.
 * 4) She is such an entitled brat. In fact, she's nothing more than a just a literal "bratty teenage daughter" stereotype.
 * 5) She never takes responsibility to her own actions, instead she just blames her mom for everything she done herself
 * 6) She once cheated on her boyfriend and when Bonnie (Grandmother) and Christy (Mother) caught her, she didn’t even care once. She just argued with them.
 * 7) Many viewers argue that she ruined the show and made it very unfunny.
 * 8) She told terrible things about her mom on a podcast. Yeah Christy did some terrible things in her life but that doesn’t give her the right to talk about the terrible things she’s done to the whole world, that’s none of the world’s business.
 * 9) She never even had any faith in her mom whatsoever.
 * 10) She told her mom that she is better off not having a relationship with her which is not a good thing to say to your own mom.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) Despite her disrespecting her mother, she is a good brother to Roscoe.
 * 2) There is some moments where she is nice.
 * 3) She does sometimes have more sense than her mother. Such as in the episode “Pilot”, she tells her mother “Why should I forgive you when you can’t even forgive your own mother?” Because Christy was being a big hypocrite in that episode.
 * 4) Similar to her mother, to be fair the reason why she acted this way throughout the entire show is mainly due to her botched upbringing throughout the years since childhood; she was born when Christy was 17 years old, and had a rough childhood because of Christy's failure as a parent, which again is caused by Bonnie became a raging alcoholic and drug addict which made her a bad parent during Christy's childhood years, which consequently caused Violent herself to repeat the same mistakes both her grandmother and mother did when they were her age. In short, her grandmother Bonnie is the root to all the problems faced by both Christy and later Violet in the whole show. But again still this doesn't excuse her negative behavior though.
