    since Aang is the Avatar, his kids could be Waterbenders, Firebenders, Earthbenders, Airbenders, or non-benders, depending whether or not the elemental spirit is born into them. his kids definitely can't have multiple bending abilities, because if that was the case, there would be a whole swarm of Avatars at one time.

    possibly...but i think air, water and nonbender are the only possibilities for some reason

    i think they will be water or air, as it is tha avatar spirit that gives aang the power to learn the other elements. his kids will not have the avatar spirit so they will be limited in the native element of the father or mother.

    the chance will probably be 50/50 but offcourse i hope some little airbenders are born.

    The Avatar spirit is clearly not something genetic but instead spiritual. Since its not written in Aangs genetic code I dought it would have any his childen. But whether the ability to bend is genetic at all is speculation.

    But interesting enought it been stated that any Air nmad can automatically airbend. It would depend under what conditions one is born an "Air Nomad." Because in this case only one parent is of air ethnicity it could be a potential toss up between Air, water or nonbending.

    non-bender has more probabilty of being born than any other element bender.

    maybe 80% nonbender chance
    20% air
    20% water

    hmm where do you get those numbers?

    i'd think with 2 parents who are benders that the chance is far greater.

    with 1 bending parent the chance gets smaller and with no bending parents the chance is verry small.

    i'd say 40% air, 40% water and 20% non bender

    well, i'm not sure about the numbers, but i know two non-benders can have a bender. but, in this case, i would think the numbers would be split evenly

    you'd say 33.33... chance that he is a air/water/non bender?

    i think the fact he has 2 bender parents fairly increases the chance of bending ability.

    well, as far as we know, it could just be random. i mean, in the "Fortuneteller" there was a pair of identical twins and only one of them was a bender. i know the element you bend is hereditary, but the spiritual part may be random (just a thought; i could be wrong)

    As long as Aang's children the genes to qualify them as an air nomad they will autimatically be air nomads. Not all water tribe members are benders so if it has??nonbender genes they will take away from Katara's side of the family. Given that all this is true if Aang has 3 or more children??it would be VERY likely for at least one to be an airbender.

    Again assuming bending comes somewhat from genetics.

    the bending itself isn't genetic. the element you bend is genetic. two benders can have a non-bender and two non-benders can have a bender

    All I'm saying is because Aang is an air nomad his child may be one. Acording to official cine-manga air nomads are all airbenders.

    2 things that might decide whether you are a air nomad, heriditary or birth place. Because the settlers in the northern air temple have given birth to??any airbenders that can't be it. So??then heridity must come into play when determining if you can airbend.

    God what a question!, might as well be asking if Ranma 1/2 could get pregnant.

    1.Who to say bending is genetic, unless your a writer/producer of the show, it not you, don't assume it genetic. It could be spiritual, I mean for the love of Vishnu, the avatar is reincarnated and not the result of some intensive eugenics program. Or it could simply be the whim of the writers! 2. What if the series never answer the quesion, what if aang dies, what if katara and aang never develop a sexual relationship as adults, what if they never show what happens in their deep futures.
