What Parents Need to Know
About Rules of Engagement
Parents need to know that this relationship-oriented sitcom includes discussions about sex (including one-night stands) and paints a somewhat confusing picture of married life. Lots of humor revolves around stereotypical male-female behavior like men fearing commitment and women "trapping" men. The bachelor character has frequent liaisons, and viewers see him in bed with different women in sanitized sexual scenarios.
