There is a short confrontation that how Ben is raising his kids is a form of “child abuse” but there is no actual abuse in the film.

The opening scene depicts a character stalking a deer, then slitting its throat. Many animal skins and some animal skulls appear around the main characters' home in the form of clothing or decorations.

There’s a scene where a dad explains to his daughter what it is. If this is triggering, cover your ears when the father asks his daughter to go in depth about what she’s reading. The scene cuts right after the father explains

A deer's throat is cut open in the opening scene. There is mention of suicide by wrist-slitting, but nothing shown on camera. Towards the end, the main character goes to the bathroom and looks at his reflection before shaving his beard completely (he is not cut in the process)

Nothing explicit. The husband hears via telephone that his wife committed suicide and breaks the news to his 6 children who become very upset. Later, the husband and children exhume the wife’s body, and the children form a circle to pay last respects.

Nothing is shown on camera, but the main character's wife is assumed to be in a mental institution where she commits suicide. Throughout the movie, they discuss her struggles with mental illness, sometimes in great detail (look out for the scene where they're eating dinner with the protagonist's sister)

Sort of: they discuss Christmas and the dad refers to it as “celebrat[ing] a fictitious elf”. Hopefully anyone watching this movie already knows Santa isn’t real.

In the opening scene, a deer has its throat slit, and a character is shown eating its heart - graphic. Towards the end of the movie, one of the protagonist's daughters falls from a roof onto a car and is briefly shown to be bleeding from her head - not very graphic.
