Because god said so is a semantic stop sign.
The old testament is pretty gruesome to any modern sensibilities. It isn't just man, plenty of gods actions are quite violent. A higher death toll on gods hands than Satan even by a wide margin.
To continue the parenting angle since the bible uses that metaphor itself. Consider that Lot was deemed a just man after everything the angels reported from their visit. Have any daughters? Would you make that offer? It isn't even consistent with other biblical teachings.
