== Personality ==

== Personality ==

Marge’s image is normally that of a [[stereotype|stereotypical]] [[sitcom]] [[mother]] who is sometimes seen as an inexperienced person and easy to be fooled. Despite having higher [[moral]]s than most other characters, Marge has had her fair share of wild escapades throughout the show’s history. She was once a [[police officer]] in Springfield, took treatment for [[road rage]], was once sent to [[jail]] for [[shoplifting]], sentenced to 90 days in the Springfield Women’s Prison, became a [[gambling]] fanatic, showed [[alcoholism]], was an unwilling participant in a cross-country police chase, took [[steroid]]s, cheated on a cooking competition and developed [[amnesia]]. She is also known for her persistent nagging and groaning. These are just some of the strange situations in which Marge has found herself. She also displays a surprisingly strong will. Marge is the only member of the family who normally tries to encourage the family to go to [[church (building)|church]]. She also appears to have significant athletic ability in times of imminent danger. She can speak two [[language]]s fluently, one being [[English language|English]] and the other in [[French language|French]].
