There is a scene where an officer suggests the wife and child are being abused, however no domestic abuse is occuring.

Charlie does not undergo abuse, but she does live in less than ideal circumstances for a good chunk of the movie.

No animals are shown dying during the movie, other than the cat described in the cat category. The farm that has chickens is safe and doesn’t get set on fire.

Dead frogs are dissected during the classroom scenes. Brief, but pretty disgusting for those who get grossed out from fluids leaving the bodies of animals or people.

Happens frequently throughout the movie. There is one particularly graphic scene that occurs near the end of the movie, when Charlie gets in the car with one of the people working at the facility. The aftermath is very upsetting, and this is coming from someone who usually has no problems with gore.

Charlie sets a woman's pants on fire, which implies genital trauma, but nothing is shown or discussed.

During the opening credits, a man rips his eyes out. You can see the aftermath, both on his face and with the eyes on the ground. Also, every time Andy uses his powers, his eyes become bloodshot and he will usually bleed out of them. Eye mutilation is also implied/explicitly shown when people are set on fire.

Both of Charlie's parents die quite graphically in the movie. There are also references to dead parents.

There is no graphic nudity or sexuality in the shower scene, if that is what bothers you.

The emotions leading up to Charlie's outbursts are very reminiscent of anxiety attacks.

I guess it isn't actually cry. It's sort of typical baby sounds. Night at the beginning.
