Moderate: Bullying and Ableism
Minor: Rape
Just as an added comment to the content warnings I listed, in the case of ableism I think the r slur is used at least once, amongst other similar demeaning language.
In the case of bullying, from what I can remember it’s pretty much all in verbal form from the MC’s stepbrother.
There are a couple of allusions to rape and I think once when the word is actually used?
There are also mentions of marriages between cousins.
