Before creation, God was also a father, healer, savior etc. all these attributes were in God before creation. In order to be a Father, God needed children, In order to be a healer, sickness had to exist, in order to be a savior there needed to be something to save, and if God is perfect then imperfection also has to exist.
Not in the sense you're thinking, I'm speaking in the sense of definition.
If a perfect being has the attribute of a father then children are needed to express that attribute (one can't be a father without children), this has no bearing on perfection.
