Trivia. In the Child's Play comic series, Karen is sent to a state hospital because the police did not believe her story of Chucky and Mike and Jack refused to back her up. After supposedly killing the doll once again, she is arrested and put on trial for murdering her psychiatrist, which in reality was Chucky's doing.
Summaries. While Andy's mother is admitted to a psychiatric hospital, the young boy is placed in foster care, and Chucky, determined to claim Andy's soul, is not far behind.
There were many rumors about why Catherine Hicks didn't reprise her role as Karen Barclay in the sequel with the popular being that she was pregnant by her husband Kevin Yagher who operated the animatronic Chucky doll, but the simple fact was that the director John Lafia wanted to take the story in a new direction.
She was committed to a psychiatric hospital after backing up Andy's story about Chucky, no one believed her and thought she was nuts. In the later movies we get a brief mention of Karen Barclay and she even calls Andy in the post credits scene of Curse of Chucky.
The duo is searching for all remaining dolls possessed by the soul of Charles Lee Ray. They are contacted by Jake Wheeler and travel to Hackensack, New Jersey to help them.

CHUCKY: The History of Andy Barclay | Horror History
What happened to Kyle after child's play?
Kyle wears her old hat from Child's Play 2 in her appearance in Cult of Chucky. In Cape Queer, it is revealed that Kyle was able to overcome what happened to her as a teenager, and is happily married. In He is Risen Indeed, it is shown that Kyle lost an ear from the explosion at Charles Lee Ray's home.
Chucky made his first appearance in the 1988 film Child's Play. In the film, a serial killer named Charles Lee Ray, aka Chucky (Brad Dourif) uses a voodoo ritual inside a toy store to transfer his soul into a Good Guy doll to escape from Detective Mike Norris (Chris Sarandon).
Station 19's mysterious Elena Herrera (Patricia de Leon) made a sudden reappearance in Andy's life at the very end of season three, understandably rocking Andy to her core.
It's revealed in the animated series that Andy's mom's last name is Davis, but also Emily's last name isn't revealed. So, in theory, both Jessie's owner and Andy's mom are named Emily Davis. While what happened to Andy's dad remains a mystery, Andy's mom's name could have secretly been answered.
While neither Karen nor Mike has been seen onscreen since the first Child's Play, Child's Play 2 did reveal that prior to its opening, Karen had been placed in a mental hospital due to her backing up of Andy's story about Chucky being alive. That led to Andy being placed in foster care and meeting Kyle.
In the next film, Alice learns she has been put under the guardianship of Chucky's girlfriend, Tiffany Valentine, who tells Nica that Alice died. Later in the film, it is revealed that Chucky was able to possess Alice but she "died" after one of Chucky's intended victims fought back.
Movies. The Three Technicians are employees at Play Pals, two of them are in the beginning of Child's Play 2, working at the company around the time when Mr. Sullivan wanted the Chucky doll repaired. The third one was working the night shift at the end of Child's Play 2.
Child's Play 2 (1990) does make her fate seem dark, however. She didn't back off from sticking to Andy's claims of a killer doll, causing the two to be separated. Little Andy is left with a framed photo of them in happier times. He goes into the foster care system while his mom is institutionalized.
While there is no definite answer, many argue that Andy's parents must have been divorced. Following this line of thought, one theory (via Reddit) holds that Toy Story is a metaphor for Andy's mom remarrying.
Now, many of you probably saw that coming (it's pretty obvious, after all), but it's important to point out that this is not an amicable divorce. Andy's dad left the family, and there's plenty of evidence to confirm this. Keep in mind that Andy's dad is never mentioned or seen throughout the Toy Story movies.
A fan theory suggests that Boo from Monsters, Inc. grows up to be Andy's mom in Toy Story, but there are flaws in this theory. Pete Docter, Chief Creative Officer of Pixar, debunked the theory and explained that the Easter eggs in Pixar films are not meant to impact the storylines of other films.
Andy's dad never appears in any of the Toy Story films, and his absence is never addressed directly. Naturally, several theories have sprung up to explain that away, including some in which Andy's parents got divorced. One theory suggests that Andy's dad died prior to Toy Story 1, after a childhood battle with polio.
Although Andy never actually sees Woody or the other toys alive in the Toy Story franchise, the video, featured above, makes a strong case for what would happen. After watching Woody stroll around for a bit, Woody turns and looks Andy in the eye causing him to faint.
Andy is one of the foundational characters of the Toy Story franchise, with his relationship with Woody, Buzz, and the rest of the gang being at the heart of the franchise's first three films. However, the events of Toy Story 3 required Andy to not appear in Toy Story 4, with his absence really being felt.
At the end of the film, Andy, his mother Karen, and two police detectives, Mike Norris and Jackie Santos, try to fight off Chucky. After he's lit on fire and loses both an arm and a leg, Karen shoots him repeatedly, and he is even beheaded. It isn't until Norris shoots Chucky in the heart that he finally dies.
After her husband's funeral, she is kidnapped by Charles, but manages to call the police. Charles angered by her rejection, pulls out a knife and stabs her in the stomach before fleeing the oncoming police. Because she was pregnant with Nica, his actions cause her to be paraplegic.
Chucky breaks out of the pen and electrocutes Tiffany in her bath, killing her. Afterwards he completes another voodoo chant that transfers Tiffany's soul into the Belle doll.
