Message
3/5

No matter how bleak your situation, there's a way out if you ask for help and accept it when it's offered.

Role model
3/5

Apple is resilient and resourceful, two attributes that help her steer her future in the right direction. And when things begin to look up, she's grateful. The girls at the house are, for the most part, supportive.

Violence
3/5

An abusive mother screams and manipulates her teenage child, calling her useless and other names. Later, she attempts to cut someone's face with a blade (it's a brief scene, but she draws blood). A mother and her teenage child scuffle. One character has a car accident. Nothing gory is seen but it's clear it's bad.

Sex
2/5

There's talk of teenage sex and a teen is pregnant.

Language
3/5

A fair amount of swearing, including "s--t" and "bitch." Young kids call a teen "stupid" to her face.

Consumerism
1/5

Some brand names and logos are seen, including Greyhound and Mercedes Benz.

Drugs
3/5

A teenager sees her mother smoking pot and drinking.
