A young girl overhears a conversation between two men about how one of the men had been startled when he entered a room and found another man naked; the young girl's stepfather also hears the conversation and takes the young girl away.

A woman asks her young daughter if her father "kisses" a young woman, or if they share a bed and the young girl avoids the question.

The movie contains a whole lot of shouting from the arguing parents.

About 9 F-words and its derivatives, 1 obscene hand gesture (a woman uses an obscene hand gesture in front of her young daughter), 2 sexual references, 4 scatological terms, 3 anatomical terms, 2 mild obscenities, 2 religious profanities and 10 religious exclamations.

Name-calling (liar and thief, headcase, total Nazi, delusional self, narrow minded, smells funny, tramp with a daddy complex, stalker and idiot.)

There are scenes of drinking wine and drinking at a bar, plus some scenes of people smoking. There is a scene of Maisie in a bar drinking a Shirley Temple.

Maisie sees her parents breakup loudly and painfully in front of her.

Some scenes may be difficult to stomach, especially for kids whose parents are going through or have undergone a divorce or separation.

Maisie is often shown in heartbreakingly neglectful situations -- at school, with neither parent remembering to pick her up; being shuttled back and forth between apartments; etc.

Maisie's sees her parents fight and swear at each other.
