Sorta. Their mother dies, dad is an addict and the children's new caregiver doesn't allow them to see him. Dad seems to stop trying, remaining absent for most of their lives.

Do NOT watch from about 15 minutes in - a father is out the back of the house and you can hear screaming and crying from a mother and young daughter. Mickey goes inside and you see a second of on-screen violence before the father turns on Mickey. They struggle and she tasers him. Ends about 16:30

i can’t recall if the word “rape” is directly used; however, there are heavy themes of certain types of rape and blurry consent in this show, such as people in power paying for sex workers (or not paying them) and nonviolent rape after emotional grooming when a victim was was a minor.

many of the men who solicit the sex workers on the avenue are married, this is referenced several times.
a character cheats on their partner. this gets only very brief screentime, but has significant impact on the other major characters.

yes, there is a large age gap and power imbalance between two characters. an adult grooms a minor starting with a friendly relationship, eventually turning romantic. the character is shown to do this to more than one person.
