Take your kids to work day?

What sort of sick joke is this. Take your kid to work day? First off, let your kids go play. They will have to put up with enough crap soon enough. Keep them in school and let them learn. Taking them to work is like taking bad kids to prison. Scare them away?

Please, while it's nice to show your kids where you work it's way more important to get them to learn. On top of it I really dont want a bunch of kids running around the office. Putting up with their parents is trouble enough!
