parent hood the movie
i dont think this is okay to show anyone under the age of 10 it's inaproprate and it sets a bad example if you are showing your kid this movie tell them before "Honey,this movie you are about to watch use your instinks and dont let this ever happen to you."

It's more for teens
This movie was alright, and not TOO inapropriate, but it still was. Anyone under 10 honestly should not see it. I say 12+, probably even 13+. I didn't really enjoy this movie, though.

 
good for teens and adults
Some sexual suggestions, teenage drinking and smoking.

Didn't get past first 5 minutes...
I didn't get past the first 5 minutes because the usher says "GD" (taking God's name in vain)... Commonsensemedia.org mentions mild language but I disagree. Any movie that has that strong of a word shouldn't be described with "mild language".

PARENTHOOD is really funny and my family loves the silly humour, but it also tackles some really adult themes that under 10s won't get or will ask about 4 years before they should.

Fine for 14? Cutting it kinda close, don't you think?
I was going to watch this with my family because common sense recommended it to me! Within the first half hour, we saw a well... a vibrator and we saw a teenage girl hiding her boyfriend who was wearing underwear under her bed from her mom and then they go to get pictures of them having sex from a photo developing place but the girls mother picked them up instead of her own by accident and saw them! Then the girl accuses her of "having sex with a machine" when her mom confronts her and EW!!! We were eating dinner-- i so lost my appetite after watching the first half hour-- it went OFF. we watched Ghost Busters 2 instead. BAD RECOMMENDATION, common sense! My parents are really disappointed. It wasn't even funny! Just a drama type thing for ADULTS. Fine for age 14? I'll be 14 in 4 months. It most certainly was not "fine" for me. My parents cant believe this was recommended for my age.

OK
It is silly, but the sensual content is an issue. My father was in this movie, but it has some issues that are not good for kids but teach parents that parenthood really isnt easy

Good movie with many sexual references.
The language is average for a PG-13 film (s--t, bulls--t, and a couple more) and the kids are disrespectful but there are many sexual things. At one point a boy in only underwear pops out and many sexual phrases are spoken, referencing taking pictures, groaning, and more. A mom uses a vibrator and her son has a porn collection (shown for a moment). Usually this won't bother me (and it doesn't) but for any viewers who don't know what porn--for example--is may go and ask tehir parents what it is or look at it themselves. If you know what you're about to watch it's fine

Keep all kids toddlers through teens away from this one.
Ok. I have four kids ages 12, 9, 6, and 3. I consider myself a fairly liberal parent when it comes to some of the things my kids watch for movies. My older two are good at distinguishing fantasy from reality, but this movie would definitely seem to be depicting reality for preteen and cause some confusion for them. Apparently my memory was faulty in remembering that this movie was a kid movie. I should know that nothing about real parenthood is G-rated, so why should the movie be rated as such. This is DEFINITELY not for kids unless you plan on explaining why that thing on TV is not a cup but actually a diaphragm and then following up your twelve year old when he asks what that has to do with having babies. Whenever I thought one scene was probably the worst one and it would get better from there, it only went more downhill. I would say this should be rated R and only be for adults. It promotes really bad teen behavior including teen pregnancy, drinking, smoking, and pornography to name a few. It could have been done with the same humor minus the sex and disrespectful behavior towards parents. I definitely give this a thumbs down for kids but rate it as fairly funny for adults.
