'''Rita Barksdale''' is [[Helen Morgendorffer]]'s older sister. (For purposes here, her maiden name is used, as her current name in the show was never revealed. It is known she was married to a man named Chambers once, but they divorced.)
The mother of one daughter, [[Erin Chambers|Erin]], Rita has had a long succession of boyfriends and possibly husbands. She's infamous for picking some really dodgy ones, like a man named Bruno who was in a "federal facility" for an unmentioned crime, and annoying men like [[Paul Meyerson]]. One boyfriend, Brian, was killed in a skydiving accident, but in "I Don't" she showed no reaction to tasteless jokes being made about his demise. In [http://www.mtv.com/onair/daria/chapter2/tangle.jhtml the MTV flipbook "It Takes Two to Tangle" ], it was written that she went out with Meyerson ''because'' he was so dull and pathetic, in reaction to the more adventurous Brian being killed - "her previous boyfriend was killed in a drop; she overcompensated by dating a drip."
We know Rita doesn't work. Her source of income is not said, but it's implied she gets quite a bit from her mother.
