Reba is a mother to 3 children and a grandmother 1 child. She has a lot of help with parenting from her ex-husband and his wife... Reba's ex-husbands wife is a tad ditzy but Reba puts up with her(sometimes).Reba does the most parenting and sometimes her kids don't appreciate it... This tv show teaches the viewers how to appreciate what your given... I try to tune in every day but sometimes I miss it and I regret when I do... I recommend from the ages of 11+. It really teaches you the values in life and how to appreciate what you have and what you're given...

Funny, Alwys. Innapropriate, Sometimes!
Rating: Pause for 10+ First off, I think parents should be aware of the theme of the show: A struggling soccer mom, Reba, with three children Jake, Kyra, and Cheyenne( a pregnant teenager) and Cheyenne's husband, Van, and Reba's husband who left her for his dental hygeinist Barbara Jean, whom he impregnated. This show is a comedy and it has a pretty good message, but also, some pretty bad content. Many first season episodes deal with sex and Cheyenne's problems with pregnancy as a teen. A character goes by B.J. Not enough violence to be worried about. Reba often threatens Barbara Jean but they are never carried out. In a later season, Cheyenne has a drinking problem. Strong, whit female characters and also smart alec characters are all combined to create an amaxing cast. Languge is mild. 'Crap' 'Ass' and 'Hell' are used often. Lots of name calling. Reba alwys disses Barbara Jean. This show is funny, but you should know your kids.
