Is it because God speaks to your child through you?
Do you think God speaks to your child through you because you are older, taller, bigger, heavier, and more mobile than your child?
Doesn't God speak to your child directly, too, regardless of age, height, size, weight, and all other factors?
Do you think that only your story, your truth, and your ideas, or those of other authorities, matter in your parenting?
Do you believe that only your interpretation of God and of life is right, by virtue of your being the parent?
How about training your child to tune in to his inner being and hear God speaking from within his heart?
How about training your child to understand that not all communication from God is through you, that she has direct access to God?
How about debunking the whole idea that Mommy knows best and that Daddy is always right?
How about debunking the idea that bigger, older, taller is always better and wiser?
How about getting out of the way and turning over to the Holy Spirit your parent-child dynamics?
What if God speaks to you through your child, and your child has always been 'right' all along?
