Children, Justice and Jesus

We all know how Jesus loved children so much. He told his disciples to bring the children to him and he often said we should be like children.

I wonder if this had anything to do with how children seem so attuned to the concept of justice. What is the most common complaint you hear from the typical child?

That's not fair!!

Yep, it's about justice. Children are constantly viewing their world through the lens of what's fair. They are first to complain, often loudly, about injustice. I bet Jesus liked that. Children seem to understand justice innately. Like it's a God-given attribute. I suspect it is.
