Teddy can get easily distracted, especially if it comes to her high school crush, Spencer. However, Teddy is sometimes shown to be jealous or angry. She got angry at PJ for bringing home the wrong baby from the park. Teddy gets jealous when her best friend Ivy becomes "textmates" with her mother. She sometimes hides secrets from her parents in a few episodes. Teddy also is easily embarrassed, especially by her family members.

She blushes when Spencer's rich parents see her family members acting ridiculously on the local news. After admitting to be related to them, she actually burps out loud twice and can't deny who she is and confesses to frequently sweating, farting and burping. Teddy can also be extremely sensitive about her grades. She gets upset and even a little mad when she gets her first B, even though Bs, which are 75% in high school grades, aren't that bad. She goes as far as even using Charlie just to please her teacher and get an A (90% in high school grades). In one episode, she angrily snaps the point of her teacher's pencil when he refuses to change her grade and ends up getting detention. She also gets mad at her ex-boyfriend Derek when he's not upset that she broke up with him, as she was expecting him to make a big deal out of it and beg her not to break up with him. Her catchphrase is "That's so unfair", based on people in her life being unfair.

It is not very well known for how she did for her S.A.T to get into her university, either at University of Southern California or Yale University in New England, which is in the north-eastern U.S.

Personal life
Teddy was born to Bob and Amy Duncan.

When she turned two, she wanted a Howdy Puppy. She never got one, and still is upset about it.

Teddy has a study date with her crush Spencer. But because of the annoyance of their family, their study date is always interrupted, which irritates Teddy. Also, when Bob slips and falls down the stairs, Teddy has to take care of Charlie, while PJ drives Bob to the hospital and they both try to avoid Amy.

Teddy becomes jealous of her best friend Ivy when she becomes textmates with her mom, Amy Duncan.

A dance is approaching at school. Teddy asks Spencer out for the big night and Ivy asks out Emmett. Teddy tries to get her first kiss from Spencer, but Emmett, who also likes Teddy, distracts Spencer from Teddy by hip-hop dancing with him. Eventually, however, she is able to kiss him in Emmett's grandfather's car.

Teddy lies to her mom that she liked her top and that Teddy wanted to be with her more than Ivy. When Teddy accidentally butt-dials Amy and she picks up, Teddy didn't hear anyone so she put the phone down without turning it off. Mom hears everything when her and Ivy were talking about how uncool Teddy's mom really is. The reason why Teddy pretended that Mom was cool was because that she wanted to see Dusk, (a parody of Twilight) although the movie was premiering on Thursday at midnight and Amy did not let Teddy stay up late on school nights.

She can mostly be seen wearing boots, and she asks PJ for them for her sixteenth birthday. Teddy usually wears jeans paired with a loose blouse or sequined tee and a long sweater.
