Field notes
Families can set each listed value as something they want children to see, would rather avoid, or don't mind, and the page says the fit score adjusts to those choices. Its stated counting rule treats each appearance alike, including a hero's behavior or a joke, rather than relying only on a film's ending. The page also describes content-warning filters and moments to check, while noting that family choices stay on the phone.
