Not just kids.
Doctor Who is a family programme. It's not kids television. People of all ages watch it. That means some stories are for kids — but some aren't. Especially now that Doctor Who has spun off the decidedly more adult Torchwood.
Because we aim to cover the whole of the Doctor Who universe (DWU), we do not censor our content on this site.
DWU characters have had every kind of sex imaginable. And they regularly die violent deaths — sometimes while chewin' tobacco, drinkin' whiskey and/or smokin' a joint, man. As a parent, you should remember that Doctor Who is a time travel show. That means it regularly depicts things we now frown on, because they used to be commonplace. In the same way Mad Men features offices thick with cigarette fog, you should expect that the Doctor will sometimes, for example, relish brandy with a 17th century pirate.
The only thing we can promise you as a parent is that we will ruthlessly root out any pornography, violent imagery, racial hatred, or other unsavoury things that are not a part of DWU stories. Our motto is that if it ain't on the show, it ain't on this site.
