It's a good thing that family friendly isn't parsed as anything other than two words with no implied context. It doesn't sound less awkward than everyone friendly. After what's the difference between kid friendly and family friendly.

Kid friendly normally implies that kids are the target market, and that adults may find it childish.

Family friendly implies that it is suitable for all ages.
