language
Infrequent use of strong language ('f**k') is accompanied by moderate ('bitch', 'ho') and milder terms such as 'bastard', 'bullshit', 'ass', 'crap', 'screw', 'balls' and 'hell'.
sex
Occasional moderate sex references include mentions of downloading pornography.
discrimination
There is infrequent peer to peer use of racial language ('n***a', 'negro'). A teenage boy is called 'midget' because of his height. Black teenagers express hesitancy in going to a school that they believe is dominated by white people.
additional issues
Basketball players push and shove each other in brawls on the court. In a scene of mild threat, teenagers think they hear gunfire whilst playing basketball but comically continue playing. Brief and undetailed references are made to drugs. Teens binge drink at a party.
