Parent reviews for Big Mouth

This show is super graphic and full of raunchy jokes. It’s entertaining but definitely not for all audiences. Even adults might fine it a little much. Also, the kids are supposed to be in 7/8th grade!? Would make more sense of they were supposed to be in high school or college!

Honestly not that bad for any kid that has watched porn. May even help them find themselves and make puberty easier. So I would say mature 14 year olds could watch this

Ew! So muchhh sex!!! So much genitalia! So much boobs! Sooo Inappropriate

This show is officially rated 17+. This is for legal reasons. I'm very convinced that it is a healthy and great show for any kid who has hit puberty and does not live a completely sheltered life (some 11 year olds are not ready for it yet, but some are &that's why I recommended 11). If you are a die-hard religious nut then avoid this at all costs, but otherwise this show will bring you back to remembering your middle school years, and I firmly believe it's a healthy show for anybody who is and/or has gone through this. Please note that there is little or no "actual sex" between the characters (animated) on this show (contrary to what other reviews will lead you to believe), however, just like most young teenagers are always thinking about, the shows is loaded with "sexual situations", and/or "wishful thinking!". It brushes on drug use (and how things never actually turn out good in the end), takes many situations way out of proportion (as most teens do), and it's a cartoon so they go places (figuratively) that are beyond reality. If you start watching in the middle, you will likely be shell shocked at the intensity of the show and the situations they cover, but if you start from the beginning (season 1 episode 1) then it will all fall into place and make sense. If your kid is going to middle school and/or has started puberty and/or has an older sibling/friends (neighborhood kids) then this show will make allot of sense to them, and is a healthy way to learn about the things that rarely get discussed between kids and adults. Also, keep in mind there's alot of detailed nudity as well as explicit language in the show. The nudity is half educational, half comedic, and all within a realm of reality, and the language is likely not any more than tweens/teens hear or use when not in front of adults anyway. My 11 year old daughter has been binging it since we found it and loves it, and she said she definitely relates to it with what she goes through in school. My son (now 15) enjoyed watching too.

The show itself is funny but there are a lot of sexual references nudity and content that should not be on a Netflix cartoon it is very disturbing for some audiences and that’s the primary reason I put 17+

I fully support everyone’s opinions on this, but I would like to give a different perspective to those who feel negatively about this show. One very common thing that’s said is it’s pornography, and to put it simply it isn’t. Pornography by definition is for pleasure, and is created for arousal purposes, this show is not that. Also I want to bring up the goal of the show, which people seem to speculate on a lot. Yes of course if you want to assume the worst and think they made this show for bad reasons, that’s your choice, however you have to acknowledge that there is plenty of good information and representation, including disabilities, different races, ages, genders, sexualities, gender identities, and way more stuff. The show talks about acceptance, abuse issues, LGBTQIA+ issues, personal issues, just overall the struggle of being a teen. On top of that, there are so many shows that were created that teens were watching more then 20 years ago that are arguably more raunchy, like South Park. If you don’t like the show cause it’s not your type of humour, that’s totally cool, but if you think it’s porn, you don’t understand what porn is and that’s something you need to sort out yourself. And for the age, it all depends on your child, what you’re comfortable with, and maturity levels. I have a child who at 12 I would have felt comfortable showing this show to, they were very mature for their age, and another child who at 12 I wouldn’t have felt they weee ready for it yet.

I would say 13 is a good age to think about watching big mouth as that's when a majority of kids reach puberty! parents: if your worried about the sex in it (which is not graphic! naked bodies clearly performing sex with no genitals shown are included though) then maybe wait till their around 15 to watch this. although some parents are acting as if this is a disgusting porn movie made for kids this is not the case one little bit! its to teach your children about growing up. chances are your kids are going through the same things the kids in the show are at 13+ so just let it be! its funny, educational and a good introduction to more mature TV.

Well, for starters, this show is very graphic. It is very good for developing teens 14+ but not any younger. It has scenes that younger children/preteens may not know about yet. By 14, teens usually understand this show, and could relate. Swearing is fairly moderate, I'd believe that this isn't anything a teen hasn't heard. Overall good show, but not suitable for children/preteens.

This is a good show for older kids. It deals with alot of older or adult issues and can help children with dealing with issues.

Definitely not for teenagers! Especially the latest seasons are oozing with sex, it's extremely vulgar. I'm not a prude but it can even make some grown ups uncomfortable.
