My counterpoint would be that when moms and dads are networking with other parents, it's helpful for their identity to be tied to their kids, because the likelihood that another parent is going to remember YOUR name rather than your kid's name is slim. Just because their identity is tied doesn't mean that's their entire identity.

I'm sure the mommy brigade is going nuts over these, but I can also see working parents finding them useful so that they're not that asshole parent flaunting their job all over the place by handing out business cards as contact information.
