His answer is ok. Here is my suggestion.

Teach a child to appreciate their value. They can be the unique and precious individual made by God, or a poor imitation of something else. God makes no mistakes, and they are perfect as is, and part of a much greater perfect plan. God's perfect will is your Happy place.

One of my favorite stories to make this point, was when Israel was told to build an altar, they were instructed to use stones, not bricks. And the stones were not to be fashioned by man. So each one would be a unique creation of God. I see a parallel for mankind. Every person has a perfect plan laid out for their life. They are uniquely prepared, given the Grace necessary to fill that role. It is vital to the Body of Christ that they fill that role. And when they find their place, embrace the plan and purpose God has for their lives, their life will be filled with joy, excitement, peace, and contentment.

The world (and god of this world) tells them that this is not the case. That is why parents must be vigilant, guard who has access to your children, monitor what they are teaching/sharing, and same goes for TV/music/Internet. Kids are being told its "cool" to be different - WHEN THEY ALREADY ARE UNIQUE!

I actually made a short video adaptation from my Boris Kitty series called Duck Dreams. Boris dreams of being a duck, and God explains why this might not be a good idea. This was prompted by this very issue. Hope you enjoy.

I looked for that reason. This is a very simple answer. It’s an abomination plain and simple to understand.
