Public Warning is not a BAD album. There is swearing, and everything but every kids HAS to go through that at school. It's not like we are learning a new word, or taking it seriously. These songs are on the radio, and you can't stop that. Kids my age, start getting into those, in crowds, listen to this, hear that? So, you may as a parent, think this is new for us. But, really it isn't not at all. Anyways, I would say, if you were to buy this I wouldn't recommend giving it to a 9 or 12 year old, as 13, almost 14. Those are the okay ages.
