Considering some of the humor in Avengers Assemble(and the cameos) I think "for kids" is a bit of a misnomer. xD

People also tend to forget that EMH had some quite sexist moments. Like Carol Danvers being able to go toe to toe with the hulk and yet randomly gets knocked out by a pebble while flying a ship. And let's not forget some of the undertones to the Janet Van Dyne stories either among more(including the in-toon suggestion that Bobbi Morse only picked up a costume because that's what Clint did).

The show had a lot of promise, and some decent episodes, but it did have some rather sexist undertones to much of the portrayal of women in the show. Not that Assemble has done much better tbh. Granted Assemble's main flaw is the fact it only has one woman in the show, but you can see how it's attempted to treat the genders as more equal in their portrayal and give more emphasis on how well-trained Black Widow actually is. Assemble also doesn't seem afraid to tackle wider classic cameos either like the Squadron Supreme or Thunderbolts. Gives a lot of promise and potential for future character usages later. Though there is a mild hint of racism in the first two episodes with Tony Stark initially recruiting Sam Wilson to use the War Machine armor. Which Sam declined in favor of using gear he made instead to become Falcon.
