Yeah, it doesn't quite work, because human parent-child relationships are (ideally) much more directly involved. The concept of God as our Heavenly Father really has him playing more of a grandfatherly role, observing and guiding from a distance without getting directly involved most of the time.

Honestly, summing up God in a single snappy metaphor is never going to work, and a lot of attempts to do so are what give people the kinds of skewed ideas about religion and divinity that are present in this thread.

I completely agree with you that if there is a divine being that a multiplicity of metaphors is necessary for human understanding.
