I watch this show with my 6yo, who definitely understands the cartoony nature of the violence, and does not take the girls as role models because - as she says herself - "I don't have superpowers; I get to argue instead of fight!"

What Parents Need to Know
About The Powerpuff Girls
Parents need to know that this cute, highly stylized series thrills the senses with its strange characters, funny situations, and lots of lowbrow humor. The message throughout is that violence is fun -- even if it's sugar-coated with giggles and hearts and high-pitched baby voices. Some of the evil characters are scary to look at, with sharp teeth and claws as well. The series swings from innocence to extreme violence in no time flat, so be on guard when it's playing.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the show's violence. Why do all of the girls' problems need to be solved via mayhem and destruction? Is it the villains' fault, or could the girls resolve their conflicts in other ways? Do you think viewers are meant to take the violence seriously, or is it all "good cartoon fun"? Can the littlest viewers understand the distinction?

Perfect for Any Age
I grew up watching this show. (I still watch it on Boomerang). And I love it. My mother knew what my little sister and I could take when we were young. When it started airing I was 6 and she was 3. We would never miss an episode. Compared to the other shows I watched when I was that age, this show is tame. (Jurassic Park—series and movies, Xena, Hercules, and La Femme Nikita) I was never scared or anything. All I knew was I wanted the Girls to win! I like it and all the small children in the town I live in enjoy it. (BTW, I'm not a parent)

Watch out, One episode is too violent
The PPG Were okay until this episode struck. Some Boys simular to the PPG wanted to beat the PPG, But ended up killing. The PPG Came alive by Tears. Besides That episode, I recommend this too youngsters. P.S In the Birthday episode, The mayor said I got the Little sucker
