Eleven's first word in Stranger Things was "No," which she said to Benny, the owner of Benny's Burgers, when he tried to ask her questions and offer her food in the very first episode, as she was trying to escape.
Most of her lines consist of only one word, which is often “no.” However, it appears that being quiet allows her to absorb the information around her. She pays attention and listens carefully to what goes on around her.
In Stranger Things, several characters say the F-word, including Will Byers, Billy Hargrove, and most notably, Joyce Byers (Winona Ryder) in a significant Season 4 moment when confronting Vecna, delivering a rare and impactful "You f***ed with the wrong family".

Whether a 12-year-old should watch Stranger Things depends on the child's maturity, but generally, it's a borderline case, with many recommending age 13+ due to intense violence, horror, strong language, and mature themes that become more graphic in later seasons, though it can be a great discussion starter for parents watching with their child.
