Kathryn "Kathy" Miller is a recurring character in the Dhar Mann videos. She is the mother of Mikey, Jayden, and Owen Miller respectively, and works as a nurse. She serves as the main antagonist of both the Mikey videos and the Mischief Mikey series.
She is portrayed by Katherine Norland, who is one of the most recurring actors on the channel, appearing in over 100 videos.
Appearance[]
Kathy Miller is a white female with blonde hair and heterochromia, as one of her eyes is blue while the other is brown.
Personality[]
Kathy Miller is known for being a strict and incredibly unfair parent towards Mikey and Owen, but acts caring and affectionate towards Jayden, who is an academic whizz, being in the same class and grade as Mikey and pretty much serves as the opposite of him much like Perfect Peter is to Horrid Henry, as unlike Mikey, he never cheats, always gets straight A's, and is never punished. But for Mikey and Owen however, they always cheat, fail their tests, and are always given the harshest punishment possible. Kathy also never helps Mikey with any of his schoolwork either, which would've most likely prevented him from failing tests.
An example of the former is where she grounds Mikey for the entire summer just for him cheating on a test, even going as far as to selling his electronics on eBay.[1] She also creates tactics and fakes entire scenarios just to humiliate her son in front of everyone, such as the school, rather than punishing him directly like every other parent. In the video where Mikey was still pretending to be sick a day later, she still lets him skip school regardless, even after she knew he was faking,[2] and when Mikey faked an allergic reaction, she decides to fake an entire scenario again by bringing him to an actual hospital, which is malpractice, and fakes giving him a shot, and as Mikey screams and cries, they explain it was fake and start laughing, which can count as child abuse.[3] It is possible that she got fired for this stunt afterwards, as in "KIDS RUIN Mom's JOB INTERVIEW" when she no longer has a job at the hospital.[4]
She is also shown to physically abuse Mikey sometimes, such as pulling him by the ear[5], slapping him, and even calling him a low-life criminal[6], even though she commits a handful of crimes herself. In Mischief Mikey: 13-Year-Old Robs Bank For Vision Pro - Ep. 1, at the end of the video, she leaves Mikey in an adult prison with an adult prisoner, in which Mikey most likely got either raped or beat up offscreen. [7] However, despite her unfair treatment towards Mikey, she still cares for him, such as when she thought Mikey actually passed out on the plane in the third episode of Mischief Mikey,[8] and sympathizes with him in "KIDS RUIN Mom's JOB INTERVIEW, What Happens Will Shock You" when Mikey cries about not wanting to leave town.[9]
In the last episode of Mischief Mikey, it appears that she has broken two prisoners out of jail and bribes them to get Mikey and Jay back in jail (as one of them said that they offered more money) causing Jay to call them traitors.[10]
In "Man With TURBAN Kicked Off Seat", she judges a man wearing a turban named Baljit to be planning a terrorist attack (despite the fact that he told her he's a Sikh, which is different from being a Muslim). She also kept calling him by a stereotypical Muslim name after he told her he is Sikh. Even when he gives advice that Mikey should stay away from sunflower seeds, since it appears he'll easily choke on them, she rejects his advice, showing that she is incredibly apathetic, arrogant, and distasteful of herself and others and refuses to take any sort of accountability for her actions whatsoever, even refusing to listen to the flight attendant when she told her to stop judging Baljit. She also took a picture of him using her iPhone so that she can show it to her husband, possibly to criminalize him even further, as she told him "If anything happens on this plane, he'll know who is responsible." However, in the end, she does redeem herself by apologizing, showing that she is quite remorseful.[11]
Trivia[]
- It is possible that she was divorced, as she and Mr. Miller were never seen together before the events of "Kid Gets SHOCKING Birthday Gift!" However, that episode makes it evident that she got remarried to another man, played by Derek Grauer.
- Since Kathy is commonly used as a diminutive of Katherine, it is possible that she could be named after her actress, Katherine Norland.
- Her apartment, as well as that of the Lawsons are located on 4460 Washington Street.
- Mischief Mikey Ep. 1: 13-Year-Old Robs Bank For Vision Pro reveals that she is 42 years old, which means she was born in 1980 or 1981.
- It is possible that Kathy might be the main reason why Mikey became a troublemaker and the way he is today by physically abusing him.
