What Parents Need to Know
About Go Waggaloo
Parents need to know that most of the songs are sweet and sound for little ones, but there are a few minor mentions of death. Of course, many kids won't notice, but it's worth noting if your child is sensitive.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about why we buy music. Do you think the fact that this artist comes from a successful family tree makes consumers more likely to buy her music? Do you think it raises fan expectations when the name on the album is already a well-known one? Is this fair? Are there other media outlets that have these same discriminations?
- It's obvious that this artist is close to her family by her songs and her inclusion of them on this album. What are some ways that your family can spend time together in relation to media? Should parents watch TV with their kids?
