Bart, although not by any means a model citizen and a constant prankster, is only a bad child when compared with exeptionally well behaved children like Lisa or Martin Prince. His enemy(Principal Skinner)always wants to find away to give him a detention but Bart always manges to slip out. His father (Homer Simpson) and his Mother (Marge Simpson) both genuinely care about him and love him, no matter what he does.

His sister ,Lisa, is smart and her accomplishments in school are above and beyond anything Bart can muster.

Bart is one of 3 children of Marge and Homer Simpson. His sisters are Lisa and Maggie Simpson. Bart and Lisa have the regular American brother-sister relationship. They often qaurrel but do care for each other deeply. They often fight over the smallest of things, including who is better at what, who gets what first, etc. They often are mad at each other for quite some time, as Lisa had a Restraining Order on Bart, but they usually make up after all the trouble has past.

Bart often gets into trouble for his rowdy conduct. He mooned the doctor the second he was born, and so began a career of boisterous behavior. He often plays pranks on his school, like spray painting, and Principal Skinner is often the butt of jokes, or the target of pranks himself.

Bart suffers from Attention Deficit Disorder, and it seems to be a severe case, as he is quite intelligent, but does not pay attention in school. He has outsmarted geniouses and planned master pranks.

Bart has a very complex relationship with his parents. They both love him, but he is prone to creating difficult situations inn their lives. Marge seems to take a more active role in raising Bart than Homer does. Homer often refers to him as, 'the boy,' which Bart responds to by calling him Homer. Homer often strangles Bart when he is angry, and calls him names.

Bart's personal nemesis, Sideshow Bob, often tries to murder Bart. Lisa and sometimes the rest of the family, help Bart out of his problems. Bart often takes advantage of Bob, like when he asked him to sing an entire opera to stall for time, knowing that Bob could not resist. Bob is always caught though, and is sent to prison, where he is regarded as a very dangerous criminal. Bart is no longer scared of Bob. This suprised Bob until bart explained that he is 6-0 against him, and that everytime they tangle Bob ends up in jail.

Bart enjoys reading Radioactive Man comics, skate boarding, and helping out his hero Krusty the Clown, who often gets in serious problems in which Bart and Lisa help him out of. Bart is famous for prank-calling Moe's Bar, where his dad often drinks. He is also known for writing messages on the chalkboard over and over again at the beginning of each episode.
