Grow Up!
Like your kids are even gonna realize what this song is about! I didn't realize until after the first time I heard it and I am a grown adult. It is redeculious that you would not let your children listen to this catchy song because of what it's actuially saying.

18 and older !
HOW CAN THIS SONG STILL BE FOR KIDS BUT ANY OTHER "RAP" SONG ISN'T FOR KIDS WHATSOEVER ? THE SONG IS OPENLY TALKING ABOUT THREESOMES AND I RATHER HAVE MY CHILD RAPPING TO JAY-Z OR DRAKE THEN SINGING " 1 2 3 PETER PAUL AND MARY GETTING DOWN WITH THREE PEEPS, " ...i dont understand how they rate this but i feel as though race and rap stereotypes play a huge part in this.

Iffy Stuff For 13-16 Year Olds
I give this an iffy for age 13 because of the lyric of the song. The actual appropriate age should be on for 17. I just got the song and liked it!

not the best for growing preteens, ok for mature kids
Okay. The thing here is that people are too focused on WHAT it says vs how it will AFFECT kids. i saw one review on here that says if you're mature enough to get past the sexual meaning then it's good. i completely agree. the song's about a threesome yes. if you can listen to that sorta stuff and not let it affect you then you're fine. middle school age girls are very susceptible to sexual influence. i know that. i was one about 5 years ago. i didn't know who i was. you don't ever really know exactly what all is okay until you're older. for me it was just recently. i know for a fact i could listen to this and never have a threesome. but the more a younger person hears things like this, the more they think it's okay. if you're a parent and do not want your child to be promiscuous, addicted, foul mouthed, or otherwise, then simply negotiate with them how often they listen to that type of music. the more you're around something the more you start to go along with it when you're younger. you have to be totally ready to not let the world influence you and not just in music but everywhere! and yeah its catchy so that pretty much overrules everything else i just said. the end.

Disgusting, inappropriate, unnecessary
The song has a nice beat and is sure to be a dancefloor hit, but Ms. Spears still has many young fans and this song - which is about having a threesome - is simply not appropriate. What makes this even more disturbing is that Britney is a mother of two boys. I can only imagine the embarrassment they will endure when they get older, having to know their mother sings such trashy songs. I am giving this an "iffy" for anyone aged 15 and older.

Okay for older teens
This is a terrible song when you really listen. This is sort of okay for 16 year olds and older.

Yay!
How on earth would children work out what this means. Anyway, a threesome isn't any worse than man on woman sex.

Your kids arent dumb
C'mon anyone over 12 knows what a threesome is, don't make the subject so taboo and your kids will be more open with you about that stuff. Don't treat your kids like babies, they are bound to know what it means, don't try to hold them back cause they are at that stage where they really know the basics of it, most of the terms and such. Other than that, awesome Brit song, great simple video too!
