I think that it's hillarious with funny jokes and episode plots. I love it how they three completely different families in one family together. This is a seriously hillarious show that I am extremely happy I didn't miss out on! The sexual content is just a few innuedos between characters occasionally, and a talk about teen pregnancy and breast feeding in the first episode, which was awkward for me and my mother to watch, but it only happened once. The language is simple words that are easily overlooked "hell", "d**n", "b**ch","gay",and things that gays are called in offense to them. The drinking is just wine every once in a while, which, you know, is expected. Also, some violence also not too noticeable, like a man shooting his son with a toy gun (as punishment) then accidentally shooting his daughter's boyfriend. The positive messages are although this family seems dysfunctional, it has love and caring and getting along, which I personally adore. Also, good role models like Manny's mother who wants her "two favorite boys" to get along. This show will go over MANY children's heads and some young, immature, tweens possibly, so mature tweens & up should be the only ones able to watch "Modern Family."
