What Parents Need to Know
About Strong Medicine
Parents need to know that this sometimes-intense medical drama deals with a host of health-related issues -- from the benign (menopause), to the more serious (child abuse and fertility issues) -- some of which might be too sensitive for young viewers. Most of the topics and storylines are female-oriented, given that the show takes place in a women's health clinic. The subject matter lends itself to some rather crass jokes on the part of the characters who work in the clinic.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about doctors and the ethical issues that arise in the medical field. Beyond diagnosing, preventing, and managing illnesses, what is a doctor's role? Sometimes physicians will identify personal issues plaguing their patients; is it ever OK for doctors to get involved in non-medical subjects? Also, what is it about medical drama that makes it such a compelling TV topic? Do you think real hospitals and clinics are as constantly chaotic as the ones on television?
