Agnes skinner

Agnes Skinner is the strict and bitter mother of Seymour Skinner. She is very harshly controlling of her son and treats him like a mother would do to a small child, once grounding him because he did not say who was at the door after answering it. She hates Seymour's choice in women, especially Edna Krabappel. Agnes has married a total of four times, once with Skinner's father, Sheldon Skinner, and following Sheldon's death, she then married three more times, each time to a tow truck driver. Several Springfield residents (including the Simpsons) are afraid of her.
== History ==
In the 1920s, Agnes used to be a wing walker on early planes and performed. Her videos were shown in museums.Midnight Rx During the 1950s, Agnes was a pole vaulter and competed during the 1952 Summer Olympics in Helsinki, Finland.Boy Meets Curl 
=== Personality ===
When she first appeared as a kindly old woman who embarrassingly called her son "Spanky". According to the DVD audio commentary, it is said that her current mean streak can be attributed to the incident involving Bart that took place in that episode in which, while sitting in a urinal stall, Bart caused the toilets to explode. Currently, she is harshly controlling of Seymour, who spends more time with her than with his former girlfriend, Edna Krabappel.  
Agnes has exhibited "cougar" tendencies in several episodes. Among the younger men, she has been in a relationship (or possibly had sex) with include Superintendent Chalmers, Otto Mann and Comic Book Guy.
===Hair===
In "All's Fair in Oven War" it's revealed that she wears a wig, as she dumps it into Marge's mixing bowl. In "Ned 'N Edna's Blend", she asks Seymour if he used her wig glue to patch his shoes again.
=== Relationship with Seymour ===
Agnes shares an unhealthy relationship with her son, which often borders on psychosis. Examples include Agnes covering up "her half of the television" with cardboard to spite Seymour. When Seymour was out of the house, Agnes phoned him regularly demanding to be taken out of the bath, shielded from the glare of car lights on the street, and other such petty requests. She hid his car keys as a punishment for his talking to a woman on the phone. Seymour himself is very obedient and almost distressingly physically and emotionally close to her (for example, when Edna agreed to marry Seymour, Agnes murmured under her breath "three in the bed!"). Agnes Skinner's catchphrase is "Seymour!" often used to snap her son's attention (as opposed to Superintendent Chalmers's catchphrase, "SKINNERRRRRR!"). She also uses him as a slave for her own bidding as evident from the quote "Why couldn't you have died instead of the Car?".Moe Letter Blues
Some of Agnes' resentment to Seymour may have derived from even before Seymour was born—during the 1952 Summer Olympics in Helsinki, Agnes competed in the pole vaulting event while she was 9-months pregnant.Boy Meets Curl When Seymour makes his first kick, he hits the bar, thus, making Agnes lose and subsequently crushing her dreams; this is probably why she is so harsh on Seymour.
