Oh, we know how to stay clear of that minefield.
 
— Margaret SquarePants after hearing her son failed his driving test again, "Driven to Tears"
Character

Margaret[1] SquarePants (née BubbleBottom[2]) is SpongeBob's mother and Harold's wife. Unlike SpongeBob, who is a squared-off tube sea sponge, Margaret and her husband are designed as round sea sponges. Although both SpongeBob and his parents are modeled after real-life species of sea sponges, it has not been explained why they are different kinds.

The decision to have SpongeBob's parents resemble round sea sponges was a reference to SpongeBob's original design.
