Mild — okay from about 9+
Modern Family S9 E15, “Spanks for the Memories”, scores 2/5 for violence, 2/5 for sex and 2/5 for language, for an overall kid-rating of 2/5 — Mild — okay from about 9+. When Jay overhears Gloria on the phone talking about spanking, he assumes she is frustrated in the bedroom. When he attempts to light the spark again by giving her exactly what she wants, he realizes he might have made a mistake. Meanwhile, now that Mitchell has an amazing new job, he and Cam throw a party to rub it in Cam's friends' faces so they can no longer give him "the look of pity."
