Some offices do not allow you to bring your child in while you are "working" but you can bring them in while taking leave to visit etc. I have brought my child in...introduced them around..showed them my desk etc..took them out for lunch.

Doesn't that defeat the purpose of take your child to work day? I attended meetings with my dad and accompanied him to client meetings. Helped take notes during conference calls. Etc.

My workplace doesn’t let kids help with the actual work. They have programs that show the kids some of what goes on, but they can’t participate in actual work. Though we do top secret work, so that’s really the reason. Can’t have kids handling highly classified information and computer systems.

My husband can never take our kids in. They don't allow kids even at the workplace for the day.

PP here. Where does your husband work? I’m at CIA and they have a program for the kids.

Agencies only allow government employees, not contractors.

Yeah ... not really the relevant point, though, since PPs were talking about agencies not having programs at all.

It is the point if you are a contractor so government can bring their kids but you cannot.
