The Fox-Badger Family

The badger father and mother fox create a new family with their children from previous relationships, which offers a positive, supportive example of a blended family coming together with love and kindness.

Occasional peril, but no one is seriously hurt. Bullying and name-calling between the kids and local tomcats, including threats like "we will punch you." A scary dog gets the scent of foxes and chases them, aggressively barking at the bottom of a tree. Mention of badger mother's death. One of the badger children sneaks out alone at night without parent permission.

Passing reference to a badger child going on a date; others make kissy noises.

Teasing/insult words such as "lousy," "fleabags," "carrot top," and "chumps" used between kids. "Darn," "phooey," "fart," and "son of a tiny badger" used, as well as mention of "taking a pee."

Along with their friends, the creatures roam the countryside and learn how to get along in the world and with each other. They show good communication skills and compassion for others, and solve problems through teamwork. There's some name-calling, such as "lousy," "fleabags," and "chumps," as well as mild peril, though nobody is ever seriously hurt.
