Parents' Guide to The Most Beautiful Flower

Parents need to know that The Most Beautiful Flower tells the story of an optimistic, confident Mexican teenage girl who wants to be popular in high school. The series values being different and knowing how to accept and believe in yourself. Mich, the main character, does not conform to conventional standards of beauty, and she's confident that her talent and personality will allow her to be loved and stand out in her school. Physical diversity and the realities of those who don't fit the labels of beauty or popularity are depicted with respect. Several characters reflect the diversity within the LGBTQ+ community. Although one character is uncomfortable with an LGBTQ+ relationship, the others are naturally accepting. The talent is primarily Mexican, with light- and dark-skinned actors, and the story is based on co-creator and comedian Michelle Rodríguez's life growing up in Mexico City. In a school bullying situation, one character is thrown into a fountain but isn't endangered or traumatized. It's implied that a character attempts suicide. Couples kiss and fondle each other. There's no nudity, but in one scene, two characters enter a lake in just their underwear and undress in it. There is some infidelity. Characters use Spanish profanity with words like "no mames," "cabrón," and "chingo" (in English, "f--k," "s--t," "d--k"). Some cannabis is found in a student's locker, and a girl gives candy to a classmate without informing her that it contains marijuana.
