That's the thing -- these are business cards, not calling cards. Miss Manners weeps that people don't know the difference anymore. And calling cards traditionally don't have contact information on them, just names -- though I can see how times could change on this one.
I'll admit it -- I'm laughing at them, and shaking my head at them. Anyone finding their identity in being someone's Mom (or Dad) is sad.
[detour for story]
A co-worker came by my office a few weeks ago. A friend of his had "inherited" a jar that was full of business and calling cards. For whatever reason, they were going through it and found my grandparent's calling card, which would have had to have been left at least 50 years ago. He btrought me the card. Kind of cool, and also kind of wierd that someone left those cards in a jar for 50 years.
