If you're a caring, responsible parent, then absolutely you would step in if you knew your kid was doing something dangerous or stupid, regardless of their age. You'd be a bad parent if you didn't.
But, you're the parent who would kill his kid if voices told you to.
You appear to be saying that God should follow us around and make sure we do only the right things. That's not what I want. I want to make my own choices. If I just heard voices telling me to kill my children I wouldn't, but if I was certain that it was God then I would. I would choose to obey his command knowing that it would be the best for my children and me.
