The movie's PG-13 rating is for sexual content, language, and some teen partying. This film probably wouldn't be appropriate for kids or tweens, but it remains a solid choice for families with teens. Especially if it prompts a discussion on bullying and popularity.
In the scene where Cady was asked if her "muffin was buttered," the line was originally going to be, "Is your cherry popped?" The same went for the girl who "made out with a hot dog"; this was going to be "masturbated with a hot dog." These were omitted in order for the film to gain a PG-13 rating instead of an R.
Several instances of passionate kissing, sometimes in the high school. A few references to virginity (as if it were an affliction) and "late" first kisses, one character's "raging libido," and three girls who regret "putting out." In one scene, a boy throws up on his girlfriend during a public make-out session.

Mean Girls marks 17-year-old Lohan's first star turn in a PG-13 movie. Because of the edgier themes running through this film, families who fell in love with her in The Parent Trap—and stuck around for Freaky Friday and Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen—may have followed her about as far as they're willing to go.
Some suggestive references are present in the movie, which were a big contributor to the movie's PG-13 rating. These include the characters' discussion about Barbie and Ken dolls' lack of genitalia, though there is no nudity or sex in the movie.

It's been almost 20 years since the 2004 teen comedy movie was released, but Mean Girls is as popular as ever. Not only can teens (the film is rated PG-13) watch the original film, there are also new ways to experience the story, including an upcoming new film and a Broadway musical.
This is a wonderful film that tells young girls not to change who they are, but it contains some sexual content such as a man in only his underwear. This film also portrays the message of appreciating being young. I would recommend this film for girls about 13 and up for the main character is a 13-year-old .

If your child is clued up and okay about all the stuff in here they can probably watch it at 10, and if you are worried your child will get scared or grossed out by the kissing then best to leave it until they are 12 or 13.
Parents need to know that this is a show full of teen drinking, drugging, fighting, sex, and angst. A single episode dealt with fallout from a shooting, included scenes in a rehab facility, and showcased the usual melodramatic relationships and smooching we've come to expect from evening soaps.
