Well, the Navy has long held "Tiger Cruises," where parents, siblings, and kids over 8 board at the last port before the ship returns to home port (eg. board in Honolulu on the way back to home port in San Diego). I don't think anyone's accusing the sailors of being wimpy, overly dependent, etc. One of my fellow professors did this with his son, and he was really excited about it.

I see "bring your parent to work day" along these same lines. It's good PR and good for morale when people are excited to share where they work.
