# Lady Bird - Parental Guide
This R-rated coming-of-age drama contains strong language and sexual content as it follows a rebellious 17-year-old navigating her relationship with her mother. While emotionally mature teens may relate to the story, the film's mature themes and language make it inappropriate for younger children. Consider your child's maturity level and sensitivity to family conflict before viewing.
