Fifteen-year-old Charlotte Flax is tired of her wacky mom moving their family to a different town any time she feels it is necessary. When they move to a small Massachusetts town and Mrs. Flax begins dating a shopkeeper, Charlotte and her 9-year-old sister, Kate, hope that they can finally settle down. But when Charlotte's attraction to an older man gets in the way, the family must learn to accept each other for who they truly are.

Neither Charlotte or Kate's fathers have any involvement in their lives. We learn that Charlotte's father once visited when she was a small child, but had no interest in maintaining a relationship.

Minors are left alone and consume alcohol, resulting in poor decision making and injury. Adults use alcohol as a coping mechanism.

Winona's character (a minor) has an on-screen sexual scene with another character who's older than her, so technically yes

Joe, 26, has sex with Charlotte, 15. He does not wait for her explicit consent and even if he did it would be statutory rape either way.

Main characters are Jewish themselves and make jokes about being Jewish, but nothing antisemitic is said to them.
