Atypical: parents' guide

A few punches with no injury detail: a father punches his wife's lover, a teen is suspended for hitting a classmate, and a man punches a hole in a wall. Police force Sam to the ground during an arrest, and classmates taunt him.

Regular cursing, including s-words, ass, bitch and crude words for genitals, with one crude term for female anatomy repeated through a scene. Ableist slurs such as retarded are aimed at disabled characters. The reviews we read noted no f-words.

Sex comes up constantly: virginity, condoms, masturbation, oral sex. Couples kiss, strip to underwear and are implied naked under sheets or in a shower. One scene shows a character's face during a hand job, and a stripper flashes her breasts at Sam, seen from behind.

Sam's mother smokes marijuana with the man she is having an affair with, his best friend smokes pot and keeps a jar of it, and teens drink stolen vodka until drunk. Adults drink, and teens and adults smoke cigarettes.

Nothing scary in the horror sense. Sam has panic attacks, one of which leaves him unconscious, a recurring character is treated for testicular cancer, and the family is shaken by a parent's affair. A death from a heart attack is mentioned.
