Conrad Walden is one of the two deuteragonists of of the 2003 American fantasy comedy film The Cat in the Hat Loosely based on Dr. Seuss's 1957 book of the same name. He is Joan's oldest child and son and Sally's brother.
According to the "Phunometer" Conrad Walden is a rule breaker and supposedly wets the bed. At the start of the film, Conrad is reckless, and irresponsible, refusing to take responsibilty for messing up the house and trying to lay blame on Sally. Joan doesn't believe him and starts scolding him for how frustrating it is that he does every exact opposite thing she said.
However, at the end of the film, Sally and Conrad rub off on each other, mainly due to Conrad seeing that even the Cat takes things way too far. While Sally learns to let loose and have fun from Conrad, he learns about maturity and taking responsibility for one's actions in spite of having fun.

Trivia[]
Larry serves an example of what both the Walden kids could have become as adults & thus if the Cat in the Hat not come into their presence:
If Conrad was not able to learn how to take responsibility for his own actions (which resulted in his initial "Rule Breaker" identification), especially when it's serious or necessary, he would end up like Larry in adulthood: unemployed, in debt, out of control, and relying too much on others without giving them anything in return. Luckily, the Cat helped him get into becoming a more well-behaved kid.
Sally's bossiness and arrogance at the start of the film would have led to her acting similar to Larry as an adult (hence her earlier "Control Freak" label), viewing people as opportunities for social-climbing and distancing herself from people she perceives as below her (which could have caused her and Conrad to be separated as adults), until the Cat taught her how to humble herself and take accountability. Larry's influence over her at the start may have been a way to subtly convince Sally that she is better than Conrad as well.
