Young children are intimidated constantly, pushed/pulled around, and given alcohol by their father.

There is consistent abuse throughout - I disagree with previous comment. A husband is violent and intimidating towards his wife and children on more than one occasion.

A man kisses a woman while she tells him to stop. More sinister assault is possibly implied.

it’s strongly implied that Mabel was raped, and if she wasn’t she still was in no mental state to actually realize that he wasn’t her husband so i wouldn’t really call that cheating

No, but the female lead is mentally ill (bipolar or something like it), and is at one point sent off to a mental institution. She returns very affected by the stay there, overly subdued.
