Not classical child abuse but it should be mentioned that the main characters father is his therapist and loaded him up with strong medications and sent him away to a boarding school because he saw his son as dangerous, this is shown to have a negative impact on the characters life

A party scene focused on the recklessness of the situation, in a positive and encouraging way. If that triggers alcohol abuse for you then best to skip over, plot points won't be missed.
