Abandonment

Sort of. Lady bird’s mother isn’t talking to her at the end of the movie when she leaves for college. She drives her to the airport but doesn’t say goodbye.

Also: A beloved drama teacher doesn’t come back the next semester.

Lady Bird isn’t abandoned in the literal sense but there are scenes where her mom leaves her when she needs her, like at the end where her mom leaves her at the airport without saying goodbye.

Lady Bird forgives Danny, who cheated on her. It's a bit murky considering the validity of his reasons, but you can still consider cheating as abuse, and Lady Bird definitely forgives him.

Lady Bird has sex with a man who's told her he's a virgin. After they have sex, he denies having ever said this.

The mother character is not necessarily abusive as a pattern but she does say very hurtful things to Ladybird when they are fighting. In one of these arguments she mentions that her mother was an abusive alcoholic.

Lady bird's mother is highly verbally abusive throughout, often gaslighting and mistreating her daughter as well as refusing to speak to her for an extended period of time after a fight and a multitude of other manipulation tactics. This treatment was distressing for me and could be for others who have also experienced abuse

Ladybird’s parents clearly love her a lot but the movie does focus on a period where she is fighting a lot with her mom. Many harsh words are exchanged and feelings are hurt (with good reason). It’s not really abuse in the technical sense but it could be triggering or upsetting to people who are sensitive to mother/daughter fighting scenes and harsh/unfair criticism and hurtful language from a mother figure (in the context of an argument).

Lady Bird consents to sex based on lies told to her by her sexual partner, which is a form of sexual assault. See the gaslighting section for more details.

I don’t know why there aren’t much votes. Nobody is raped on- en offscreen. And no rape is implied. There is only a boy who first claimes to never had a sexual experience, but afterwards says he has had sex before.

No. It’s not explicit but it seems like Julie has a crush on her favorite math teacher and he definitely doesn’t discourage her attention: he gives her a nickname, praises her hard work on assignments and comes to see her in the musical with his pregnant wife. It could be upsetting to people who are highly sensitive to predatory teachers however what’s shown in the movie is fairly innocent and as far as we know nothing ever happens.

Ladybird’s finds her first boyfriend kissing another boy in a bathroom stall. However he is revealed to be gay (closeted) and not bisexual. There are scenes earlier in the movie where they are kissing and he doesn’t want to touch her boobs which support this reveal.

Not in the typical sense, but Lady Bird discovers her first boyfriend, Dylan, kissing a boy, therefore leading to her and her best friend realizing that he is gay before they were told. They don’t tell anybody else about this

Ladybird jumps out of a moving car in the first scene but it’s not intended as a suicide attempt and she just ends up with a broken arm.

The priest who directs the fall musical is seen in an evaluation with ladybird’s mom (a nurse at a hospital) and it is implied he has had suicidal ideations but no attempt is shown or discussed.

Yes. Ladybird loses her virginity to Kyle. At the time she thinks he is also a virgin. In bed afterwards he admits he has had other partners and denies ever saying otherwise (though the scene where he said he was a virgin is shown). She is upset and embarrassed in the moment and breaks up with him.

The movie and Ladybird’s stance is definitely pro-choice but you do see an anti-abortion assembly at a Catholic girl’s school which could be upsetting to viewers sensitive to anti-choice propaganda.
