What Parents Need to Know
About `When I Grow Up` (CD single)
Parents need to know that this is a song that's all about dreaming big. The Pussycat Dolls aspirations include driving nice cars, having groupies, and getting their face on TV and in magazines. The song promotes the old cliché that with little or no work, someone can rise to the top and enjoy superficial success. Parents should note that the video for this song is a bit risqué, with lots of flesh flashed about in the Dolls' trademark seductive dance sequences.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about what it means to be successful and what it means to be famous. What is the difference? Because someone is famous, does it automatically make them a success? Do famous people seem happier than average people? If you had to choose, would you rather be rich, famous, or successful?

I LUV THIS SONG!!
OK, 15 and up??? R U KIDDING ME??????? THEY PERFORMED THIS AT THE KIDS CHOICE AWARDS!!!! COME ON PARENTS!! They say s**y twice but you can barely hear it kinda. And all they say is they wanna be famous. Woop de doo. And they sing "be careful what cha wish for cuz ya just might get it" So it's kinda a lesson too!!! I saw like 5 seconds of the video and that might rlly be 15 and up, but the song? I would say 10 and up.

Not the Usual Pussycats.
O.k. the song is about how you might dream about fortune and fame, but when you get it you might not like it. That's why they say "Be careful what you wish for cuz you just might get it yah you just might get it!" So it's actually positive because it's the whole fame and fortune isn't that great story. My only complaint is that it sounds like they're saying boobies instead of groupies. You might think I'm being immature, but listen to the song. That line could potentially bring up some awkward moments. Overall though, this is a great song!

This song is great. I deffinatly feel like I can relate to the song. I love PCD, and I think this song is a great sneek peek to their up-coming album.
