My point is that you seem to have had a misunderstanding about what charli.m originally said. She was not CALLING them 'souls,' in a literal sense of the word, she was just speaking of their personal characteristics as people. Saying that they are 'sweet little souls' is basically just saying that they are special in a good way :)
Furthermore, in my experience, that is completely normal to say something like that in that manner.
char·ac·ter·is·tic\ˌker-ik-tə-ˈris-tik, ˌka-rik-\
noun
1 : a distinguishing trait, quality, or property
Humans, simply do not have any Physical properties of a 'soul'. Stated a different way, a 'soul', does not have any Physical properties. Everything in the Universe has Physical properties, including space. Ergo, a 'soul', simply does not exist in this Universe, or in any other Universe.
The sensation that might mislead us into believing in this Archaic concept, might be due to the configuration of our Nervous System.
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nervous_system
Humans do have traits. These traits, however, are Genetic in nature, being inherited from their respective biological parents. (Transfer of DNA in sexual reproduction).
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetics
If something does not exist, it could not possibly have any qualities.
'Sweet', is a sensation of taste.
I have helped to raise children, and never in my experience, has a child tasted sweet. 'Cherished', is by far, more appropriate.
In which way(s) are these children 'special'? This instills a behavioural trait, which often leads to greediness.
Please teach the children correctly.
They are sensitive and loving little people. You can cherish them.
A perfect example of someone using a turn of phrase understood by the general population who speak that language (therefore NOT creating a division...)
And you being pedantic (can we say creating a division?)
It is your prerogative, whether or not to teach your children correctly or not. Should you continue to teach Archaic concepts to your children, it will disadvantage them. Do you want your child to be a Doctor or a Garbage Collector? Doctors wrote and understand these articles.
Please take some time and try to learn these, and other things. There are links for any terminology that you don't understand.
Please remember: although we do not have 'souls', we do have a Sentience. This is what could be loosely called your 'mind'. It is in your brain, not in your body, although the Nervous System extends throughout your body, so is an accessory to this. But it (your Sentience) is located in the 'thinking' part of your brain.
Is it normal that I believe men are being portrayed as morons?

Incorrect.
I am trying to help you and your children.
Did you read the articles cited?
Did you understand them?
It is your prerogative, whether or not to teach your children correctly or not. Should you continue to teach Archaic concepts to your children, it will disadvantage them. Do you want your child to be a Doctor or a Garbage Collector? Doctors wrote and understand these articles.

'Normal' and 'Common Sense' aren't always necessarily correct.
