Language includes 'f-king,' 'f-k,' and 's-t.' Characters are complex and human there are no stereotypes here, but instead flawed humans who make mistakes but also give each other acceptance and emotional support. Several characters are fluid in their gender identity and sexuality expect same- and opposite-sex kissing, dating, flirting, and off-screen sex, as well as frequent non-sexual nudity: men visible fully naked from the front and behind while they shower a woman's breast and buttocks visible as she gets into a bath. Violence is infrequent but has emotional consequences: characters consider suicide, a teen slaps his mother in the face suddenly when she's cooking for him. A 14-year-old also drinks alone, including in a scene where he throws up and almost falls down from drunkenness. The show's Italian setting informs some of its content as a teen says, they can 'drink anywhere in Italy,' and they do, consuming cocktails and beer at parties and gatherings.
Parents need to know that We Are Who We Are is a series about a teen who moves to an American military base in Italy when his mother is appointed commander of the unit.
