I didn't find it a very inappropriate, i believe that since there were kissing scenes, those were probably the most inappropriate, but this show/movie wasn't held against 8 year olds, it was put on TEEN NICK for a reason.Also this would infact be the way teens, and even children in there late tweens act.This movie (other than the commercialism) was based on real life.Of course it was the real life of child rock stars.Lastly the only reason school, or learning wasn't put into the movie, is because kids don't want to see kids learning on t.v, it's supposed to be appealing for a reason, also if you'd like to think about the childrens learning, they do have a tutor
