Women and children are controlled by their family members.

It is implied that Agnes husband was abusive to her: references to Mr Van Rhijn as “not someone you’d want to be alone with” and her having suffered to provide for herself and her sister (by marrying him).

A father disapproves of his daughter’s marriage and tells her her baby died when really he stole the baby and sent it away.

Mrs. Russell is very controlling of Gladys, including reading her mail, firing her maid who helps her meet a friend, and not allowing her to take an adult role in society. This is a result of her social climbing (as marriages are tools) and is largely resolved by the end of the season, but may be upsetting to viewers.

At the very end of season 1 episode 8, dead chickens are shown being butchered. It’s possible the death of one is shown, but I looked away. After Bertha Russel is rushed out of the Astor house through the kitchen, look away to miss it.
