I do think that if there is a SERIOUS problem with a dog AFTER you have kids, that the safety of your kids needs to come first and another home for the dog needs to be found (a dog should never be dumped or given to just anyone--a good home needs to be found).
However, to just give a dog away JUST BECAUSE you had kids doesn't make sense.
If you know you won't want an animal once you have kids, you shouldn't get one to begin with.
I know plenty of married people who skipped getting that "just married" dog (that some folks get when they get their first place) because they wanted kids right away and didn't want to deal with the responsibility of an animal and a new baby.
That's the smart thing to do.
