What Parents Need to Know
About Rescue Me
Parents need to know that this show is an unflinching look at the lives of firefighters. These rough-and-tumble men -- and the occasional woman -- put their lives on the line when they go to work, and their language is as rough as the situations they face. When they're not fighting fires, they're usually crass, sometimes violent, often drunk, and always looking for either sex or love, though not always at the same time. In short, they're very human, very flawed, and very real.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about how they would react to some of the conflicts Tommy and his pals face. The show creates extreme, but realistic, situations that require the characters to make difficult choices. In one important storyline, for example, Tommy, his father, and his uncle take justice into their own hands. What do teens think they would do in a similar situation? Do the ends ever justify the means? What can people do when they believe the law has failed them?

I dont know why CSM thinks the language is really that bad, they never say the F word. But who really cares? This site is made for little panzies who always chase their children around like little rapists. I am not one of those people, and I think kids should have more freedom. I only got an account to write this.
