What is the importance of this verse:
ejee baarmo ratan to baallak rup to bhrahamano chhe aay
tene dukh ma dejore muneevar bhaaee;
keeddee makoddee jaar charaklee pashu maatra te upar rees na keeje jeevtaa maratak hoeeye;
jem deepak upar pata(n)g zapalaaeeye.............................12
"The twelveth Jewel, o believer brother is never to annoy a child who is a smile of Divinity; you should not be angry at ants, or water insects, or any aquatic animals or quadrupeds. You should live as a dead man as a moth upon a burning candle(ever ready to die)."
Why does it talk about a child?
Whats so important about the ants, water insects or aquatic animals/quadrupeds?

For example in the Budh Avatar of Pir Sadardin, it is said :
57. (Are damned) the pitiless military and financiers
Who make war, who kill
58. Who separate the calf from the cow during suckling period
