The term '''family-friendly''' is applied to material (most frequently [[movies]] and [[video games]]) which is appropriate for use by all ages. It is characterized by being free from sexual description (in words or images), [[profanity]], [[blasphemy]], [[drug]] use, and positive depictions of [[crime|criminal]] violence, etc. and is respectful towards [[Christian]] values. It is ironic that material containing these is often described as 'adult'; anything more immature than [[pornography]] would be hard to imagine.

The term '''family-friendly''' is applied to entertainment or educational material (most frequently [[movies]] and [[video games]]) which is appropriate for use by all ages. It is characterized by being free from sexual description (in words or images), [[profanity]], [[blasphemy]], [[drug]] use, positive depictions of [[crime|criminal]] violence, etc, and is respectful towards [[Christian]] world-view and values.

 

Though the system of movie age ratings can provide some guide to the content of entertainment, it does not offer a complete description. To fill this niche, Christian services such as [[CAPAlert]] provide a detailed breakdown of how different aspects of a movie could be considered unsuitable for families.

 

The term '''family-friendly''' may also be used disparagingly to imply material has been sanitised to the point it is misleading, unrealistic or inaccurate.
