#I'm sure Aang must've been so happy to finally have an airbender child to continue his legacy (he WAS the /last/ so it's understandable)

Off - topic from my latest reincarnation posts but ... I refuse to think that Aang WOULDN’T have been a good dad ! I really dislike the way he was portrayed in LOK on that front ? I mean I agree that he might’ve spent some more time with Tenzin than with Bumi & Kya because he would’ve had to teach Tenzin airbending (while Katara could’ve taught Kya waterbending, and maybe Sokka could’ve taught Bumi how to fight as a nonbender ?); but I don’t agree with the way Bryan and co. made him blatantly favor Tenzin over the other two and go on vacations ONLY with him ? Aang loved all of his kids and just as we were shown with the Air Acolytes, anyone can learn and respect the Air Nomads’ culture, so I don’t see why Aang couldn’t have taught Tenzin, Bumi and Kya everything about the Air Nomads, it’s their culture too ! So on THIS topic I’m definitely canon divergent.

They deserved to know and experience both of their cultures#and it's simply unfair to see how Tenzin got to travel with Aang to the temples and just overall learn more than Bumi and Kya ever did?#seeing Bumi & Kya's inferiority complexes and slight bitterness when it comes to their vs Tenzin's relationship with Aang makes me sad#I'm sure Aang must've been so happy to finally have an airbender child to continue his legacy (he WAS the /last/ so it's understandable)#but dude teach all 3 of your kids everything you can about your culture! Tenzin isn't the /only/ Air Nomad even tho he is the only airbender
