Not family-friendly, in a way

Answer:

RATED-R

Hint:

Think of the label you might see before a movie that restricts viewers under 17 without an adult.

Explanation:

The clue hints at something that isn’t suitable for kids, which is often how movies or shows labeled "RATED-R" are described. The hyphen in "in a way" signals that the answer is a hyphenated term, and "RATED-R" fits as the standard rating for mature content. It’s a straightforward definition with a slight nudge toward the answer’s format.
