Gloria ties the neighbours dog to a tree or something. The dog is fine and you never see it. I think it went to a shelter or something.

Gloria and Jay can be a bit violent or verbally abusive toward each other, and forgive, Jay doesn’t accept Mitch’s sexuality and then does and is forgiven, Manny idolises his unreliable, unpredictable father.

In one episode, a Gloria slaps her husband Jay hard across the face (for secretly sleeping in a hotel to avoid her snoring, not that it matters hitting your spouse is unacceptable)
On a further note, Gloria frequently "casually" acts in physically and emotionally aggressive behaviors towards Jay.
Also, in one episode. Jay recalls memories of his toxic relationship with his ex wife Dede. He describes an incident where she threw a video cassete at him.

Lots of little examples of it throughout the show, but namely: S1 E10 Haley and Alex gaslight Luke.
S7 E19 Claire makes Phil think that he's done something wrong, and he continually tries to make up for it, even though he hasn't, and she's just trying to hide something from him. It's not cute.

In season 1, Jay accidentally kills Manny's turtle. Also, in season 4, Cam makes a fountain with fish in it and the fish start to go through the fountain mechanism and probably die on the floor or even the way through. This is the third time I'm editing this comment. And in season 8, Cam scares a goat and it hits a wall and die. In another episode in season 8, Jay puts "infected" wood dust in the aquarium, the fish eats and dies. This was the 4th time I edited this comment.

Several small animals die, most offscreen. In S8E7 a goat gets panicked and runs into a wall and dies. It happens in a POV shot, so we don’t see it die, but a couple minutes later we see his legs sticking out of a blanket which was used to wrap his corpse.

Gloria is touched inappropriately by a man at the dude ranch who is coming onto her while they are both alone, it's not a long scene before her husband comes.
Alex was In a sexual relationship with a boy in high school while she herself was in college
There is an entire episode about Mitchell being uncomfortable with cams mother touching him a lot, inappropriately, without permission - including on his butt and upper thigh, and kissing him on the lips. He is very uncomfortable.
Alex is kissed without permission by another tween boy while she's on vacation. Later in the episode she kisses him back, and they develop young crush like feelings. Which doesn't excuse the act, but may make it a little less triggering if you choose to finish the episode.
Mitchell is kissed without permission during a play in front of a crowd.
In a busy cake shop, cam (adult) is on the phone with Manny (12 year old family member) helping him figure out what to say to his crush while he's nervous on a date. He them says out loud something like "I know you're only 11 years old, but I've had so much fun talking to you online, I think we should be boyfriend and girlfriend" - suggesting Manny says that to his crush. Everyone in the store turns around looks at him, thinking he is a predator. The scene ends, and Jay picks up the phone and and hears cam crying and "how did you get kicked out a cake store" then "well that'll do it". So not assault, but a joke relating to it.
Phil is kissed on the lips without permission by a friend he has over to watch the game with, who mistakenly thought they were on a date.
There is an episode where Claire keeps getting kissed without permission by a man who Phil is working with in real estate. As a hello/goodbye. Phil doesn't seem to take her seriously the whole episode despite her telling him "you don't think that's weird?" Soon in the episode we see this man kissing everyone on the lips, including his kids, and an older female relative, implying that it's not sexual in nature to Claire and it's just a part of his culture. Doesn't excuse it, but we realize he's not coming onto to her.

Phil is implied to have narcolepsy but only for one episode.
There are a few times where people have conditions that the actors don’t have but generally not lifelong disabilities,
Edit: the narcolepsy is very badly portrayed, not morally, just factually

S2:
Episode 1: Luke runs out of the car and throws up from 16:54-17:57. Audio only. Comment says there is no visual but chocolate milk which could’ve confused for vomit.
Episode 2: At the very end when the credits are rolling, Phil spills paint on himself and asks for a bucket. He starts gagging.
Episode 22: Luke eats a lot of food and asks for a bag to vomit into. You don’t see or hear anything, but Claire says he threw up in the car.
S3:
Episode 17: Alex says “i’m going to be sick!” after seeing a lot of fake blood, but nothing happens.
Episode 20: Alex vomits from 17:20-17:40. Warning could be someone saying “oh no!” Gross audio but no visual.
Episode 21: A homeless man retches.
Episode 22: Phil gets motion sickness and looks as if he will throw up but does not vomit.
S4:
Episode 1: Haley is hungover and says she’s gonna throw up but you don’t see it.
Episode 22: At the skate rink Luke throws up. You don’t see it but they talk about it a lot and Luke looks sick and is groaning.
S5:
Episode 1: A baby spits up twice at the very beginning. No visual, but gross audio.
Episode 7: Claire says she is going to throw up but it is just an excuse.
S6:
Episode 3: The family has a cold and mentions vomit a lot. At the end of the episode Claire says she is going to throw up but it is not shown.
S7:
Seems to be safe!
S8:

S9:
Episode 8: Phil says his stomach hurts for the whole episode and looks as if he will be sick/in a lot of pain but he never is.
S10:
Episode 8: At the very end, when Jay tells the football team to hydrate, they drink milk. The sound and visual were disturbing.

In this episode Mitchell keeps introducing him(tom) to people as Tom at first but then puts his hand next to his mouth and says that Tom used to identify as Tina.

Yes. I think. Mitch and Cam talk about Lily’s transgender friend and use their deadname. In the mockumentary style, they tell you the friend is trans without permission or valid reason.

There's a lot of scenes in the hospital, and various times people are hooked up to IVs. Not graphic though.

Sort of. In one episode - season 6, episode 6 (I think) - the house is dressed up to look like a mental institute, but there are only props there.

A boy introduces himself to Alex and says “I have a touch of Asperger’s” (I feel like this is a reference to something but I can’t remember what) and then admits he doesn’t, and just said that so she’d “think [he] was interesting”.
Alex then says she knew someone with Asperger’s who could tell you something about your birthday (idk it was something like the weather? But a very specific fact).
This isn’t exactly misrepresentation, but:
- the word Asperger’s is often considered outdated (idk when this was filmed tho), ableist and racist (look up the history)
- contributes to Aspie supremacy (again look it up if you don’t know)
- and is generally pretty frustrating and anxiety inducing when you’re autistic to watch it :/
Also the episode after a “know it all” kid displays a lot of autistic traits and has a bit of a “meltdown” when she is called a “know it all”.

Sorta.
Season 6 episode 3, a developmentally “gifted” child who displays autistic traits has a sort of meltdown, even tho not confirmed autistic so not exactly an autistic meltdown I guess.
Many times people yell, hit, kick, scream at each other in a comedic manner, but this may be distressing to some viewers.

Not sure why this hasn't been said but Mitch and Cam (mostly Cam) say things and act in ways that are incredibly insensitive surrounding Lily and her ethnicity. Examples include interactions with their Asian paediatrician, Cam taking Lily to a commercial that involves white voice actors doing 'asian voices', as well as frequent racist remarks about Lily being a Panda or liking rice.

The family also goes to a Dude Ranch and shoots clay pigeons. Mitchell accidentally swings his loaded gun around towards everyone, and they all duck and scream, but the gun gets taken away from him and everyone is fine.
