Common Sense Note

Parents need to know that Lucy's bullying behavior causes her little brother a lot of grief. She seems to glean pleasure in watching the poor kid sweat. Some of the addictive behavior that Linus exhibits might set off alarm bells for parents, but most of that will go over kids' heads because it is played for laughs.

Sexual Content

Not applicable.

Violence

Lucy punches Charlie Brown in the nose when he calls her crabby. She also takes a baseball bat to Schroeder's clay bust of Beethoven. She bullies her little brother.

Language

Some shaming and name-calling: "stupid," "idiot," and "disgrace."

Social Behavior

Linus needs help from his friends to wean himself off of his blanket, so the message of relying on and helping others is explored. Lucy's bullying behavior is not directly addressed.
