What Parents Need to Know
About The New Adventures of Old Christine
Parents need to know that although Christine spends plenty of heartwarming moments with her third-grader, this sitcom isn't really about parenting. It's actually more adult, dealing humorously with such issues as how middle-class types mingle with their super-rich counterparts, how women size each other up, and how ex-spouses move on and move up in the world.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about what happens when a nuclear family detonates, and what the fall-out is for both parents and children. How can families survive divorce? What's it like for kids? They can also explore questions of race and class, both of which are brought up in the episodes that deal with Christine's son switch from public to private school. Is it easy to start over? How does one begin again?

Very adult humor
My son thinks this show is funny, but I try to watch it (on TiVo) after he goes to bed because there is a lot of content I don't want him to see.
