The Last Airbenders Broken Family! Avatar Aangs Legacy 

Zuko is the only one who doesn't have family issues in Legend of Korra. That's so ironic it hurts.

Having famous parents like Aang and Katara couldn’t have been easy for their children. Bumi especially likely had to carry a heavy burden being the firstborn child of two of the world’s best benders at the time.

kya and boomy: My father doesn't like us Lin and Su: Our mother didn't care enough Izumi: That's rough buddy

Aang wasn’t a terrible father he just wasn’t perfect. When they look at the picture they specifically acknowledge that they were a happy family

I bet Sokka was an amazing uncle.

Imagine if Sokka became a dad, his dad jokes would be amazing.

I just realized Aang named his first child after his best friend Bumi

I literally cried when Bumi became an Airbender, I was so happy for him

Honestly what hit home for me was when Bumi was at Anng's statue. And said "I'm sorry I wasnt the airbender you hoped for me to be, but I tried my best to keep the world safe. I hope your proud."

I kinda like that the only one who was a semi-decent parent was Zuko. Despite his dad being one of the worst human beings to grace our screens, he managed to learn how to be a good parent from everything that Ozai didn't do and everything Iroh did.

Guys, most of you including this video are missing a key point. Remember what the culture of Airbenders were when Aang was a child and the way they raised their children? It wasn't a 2 parent structure, you're all looking at this from your own cultural perspective. Airbenders raised children in a massive family unit, the blood parents didn't matter, the community took care of the children. Aang was raised this way therefore he isn't inclined to smother his children as a 2 parent household would. It's most likely that he saw an opportunity to revive his clan in his son, therefore he dedicated a ton of time to Tenzin as the hope of the Airbenders. Not because he loves him more than his other children. In a way I guess it is favoritism, but not in the way that you are all thinking in the context of a 2 parent household.

I really hated the fact that we didn’t get more of Sokka’s story in Lok. They could’ve at least given him some kids or grandkids 😔Also hated the fact that aang’s spirit didn’t communicate with korra as much as he should’ve. It would’ve been nice to get more of those two in there, especially aang 😔korra really should’ve leaned on aang more for guidance . It would’ve been great for the older fans to see adult aang interact with her.

I mean he was raised by the Monks, not his parents. Monk Gyatso seems to have spent more time with him than the other children. I don't believe Aang realizes the affects of a parent having favoritism because he wasn't raised by his.

Sokka: Son... my ex girlfriend turned into the moon. Son: Thats rough buddy.

I think Aang did spend time with Bumi and Kya but he didn’t spend enough with them in Kya and Bumi’s eyes.

People forget that Aang had pressures of saving the world, raising the family, and making sure his people didn't die and could continue to live in the bending world.

"even great people can become horrible parents" I see you Naruto

I want a series with just ang and the gangs adult years

I don’t think Aang neglected Bumi and Kya... he just favourited Tenzin, which is completely understandable even if morally questionable. Aang was the last of his people, arguably his biggest goal and desire in life was to bring back the Air Nomads, even more so than his desire to keep balance in the world. Tenzin was the only thing keeping the Air Nomads alive that Aang ever got to see, and he had to pass down everything he knew to Tenzin, all the bending techniques, their ceremonies and traditions etc. It’s no wonder that he spent more time with Tenzin.

LOK did the ATLA gang so dirty, we don’t even get to see much of Sokas adult hood

I really find it unrealistic that Aang would mistreat any of his kids even more so that Katara would allow it.

Imagine being the son of the avatar and a waterbender but be a non bender😂, I would hate my life

Aang loved his children, all 3 of them his just spend more time with his airbending son

They were literal children during the run of their series. We don't know what could have led to those things happening. I dont believe that Aang thought "oh these aren't airbenders so Im going to ignore them". People have flaws, even child protagonists grow up into imperfect adults. Aang died young compared to the others because of how much life force it drained to seal himself for 100 years. He had an airbending son and knew he had to pass on all he knew to this one child. Again, another Last Airbender. Of course he would have accidentally put more pressure and spent more time with Tenzin. It's okay to dislike that he did this, the series paints it as wrong, but a lot of people are saying it ruined the show or they don't consider Korra canon for it. That's silly, imo. Just because we don't like it doesn't make it bad writing. I appreciate it the look into the stress Aang must have felt, and we see it in Tenzin's insecurities

In Aang's defense, Tenzin is literally the only airbender he's seen in YEARS. His entire culture was wiped clean and he was the only one left. Imagine how excited he must of been to connect with someone just like him. He has no choice but to pay very close attention to his child who is the only hope for the next generation of airbenders. It doesn't make what he did right, but I can't really blame him.

The thing I found hardest to accept about this is that it is implied that Aang cared less about Bumi because he was a nonbender. This makes no sense to me, not once in Avatar does it imply that Aang views nonbenders differently from benders. I mean his best friend is a nonbender for crying out loud.

I don’t think Aang was necessarily wrong, he just had to remake an entire race. Like an entire race. And he made mistakes, but I don’t like this black and white perception.

Honestly everyone has their faults Aang is no different. Honestly it doesn’t surprise me that he passed on all of his culture’s future towards he’s youngest son. But ignoring he’s other children is hard to believe but I think he didn’t quite understand that. In the Avatar: The Last Airbender when Aang found he’s temple and the complete extinction of it he was mad and this wave of responsibility came upon him. I feel like he saw his youngest son as his first step towards that and seeing how he was very determined towards his goal, he drowned his child in all of this responsibility and frustration that was all Aang’s. I do agree that all of the children should of been involved in with the air bending culture. And Bumi even tho he was born a non-bender there are non-benders in every nation. I did wanted to see Bumi become an awesome Chi-Blocker.

The favoritism attacked And when the children needed him most he disappeared

I think Aang's guilt for leaving when the air-nomad genocide is what caused Aang to put so much pressure on Tenzin. Also I think Tenzin put pressure on himself as well.

realizing that the people you look up to are just normal human beings that make mistakes and aren’t perfect is hard to accept but it’s life, i grew up the middle child and the only girl i always felt left out and overlooked that doesn’t mean my parents were terrible and horrible it just means they made mistakes nowhere in the show did they say aang was a horrible parent they just acknowledged that due to the pressures of having to literally revive his entire culture he ended up making kya and bumi feel overlooked they literally agree when tenzin said aang loved all of them but still acknowledged that tenzin got special attention because he was an air bender idk why people find that such an outlandish concept

Well katara and aang never had a proper upbringing let alone perents. So I doubt they would have been the best perents Edit: let me ake my point clear. I'm not saying that they were made to be bad perents. What I'm saying is no perent is perfect. Yes even perents that suffered childhood trauma and pressure aren't perfect perents.

Honestly Aang’s treatment of his kids made no sense to me. He would have totally been a fun dad who would have totally brought all his children into his culture and stuff. It simply doesn’t make sense for his character. His whole point was being light, fun loving, and very caring. And not only would he NEVER do what he did, but even if he did, Kartara would have probably smacked him around if he neglected his kids. Also discriminating their son for not bending when Sokka also doesn’t have bending doesn’t make sense. IT JUST DOESNT MAKE SENSE

Is it me or are Aang and Katara's children basically a new generation of the original trio. Bumi, the oldest sibling that has no bending = Sokka Kya, the second oldest being a waterbender = Katara Tenzin, being the youngest and an airbender = Aang

I really don't get this. They changed his character so much. The character we loved would also teach his other children about his culture. Also the bender dna doesn't just pass from parents to kids. Thats why katara has water bending even though none of her parents had. Aangs grandchildren could have air bender abilities. If his kids grew up in their fathers culture they could have raised excellent air benders

I don’t think their family was ‘broken’ so much as complicated. Bumi was the wild child part of Aang so him seeking attention that way didn’t seem to be too much of a stretch. The problem ultimately is that Aang got to see the one thing he never thought he would-another airbender. Tensin wasn’t just his child but also made Aang not alone anymore; he had a tribe again. I can only imagine what tbat must have felt like. I think his kids, when they were younger, felt the weight of having an a sentee father who had a clear favorite. As they got older though I think they grew to understand why Aang had acted the way he did. The problem came ip only be ause Tensin kept talking about holiday that his siblings weren’t on.

I'm surprised Katara didn't snatch Aang up by the ear and make him include his other children. It's like once they went off screen Katara lost her backbone, so disappointing.

To me, this part of Aang as a parent makes him very human.

I wouldn't say broken, if they were truly broken, they would seem resentful toward each other for the past, but they look so happy in that picture and Tenzin even named his Byson after the love between his parents (Sokka called it Oogies, and the Byson is called Oogie) so their lives while their parents must have been under a lot of pressure were happy and Aang had the weight of the entire world and his entire culture on his head while feeling responsible for the deaths of his people. So having Tenzin would have encouraged him to be more attentive toward him.

I love Korra, but man am I head-over-heels for Tenzin. I would have loved more episodes centered around him and his siblings. And I would have also loved to see a bit more of old Katara.

I can imagine Sokka specifically taking care of Bumi since Kaya had their mother and Tenzin had their father. Sokka knew what it felt like to be surrounded by amazing benders and feeling left out and disappointed in himself for not being one of them. 😭😭😭

I really wish they continued the avatar story with Aang. There was still plenty of story to tell. They could have made another 3 season show that revolved around everyone recovering from war, along with answering many of the questions we had. They had the material for it anyway in the form of all the comics. Why couldn't they animate that instead of LoK? Plus I'm not even mad about Lok I just hate how much potential the show had and then threw it away.

to let you know aang didn’t force tenzin to that position he just thought him the ways of air nomads and that’s why tenzin thought since he was the first air bender born in 100 years he placed a mission on himself , and also aang would be really proud of his children

I wouldn’t call a happy family “broken”. Just like every other family, Katara and Aang’s had their flaws, and Aang didn’t neglect Kya or Bumi he spent more time with Tenzin to teach him. The important thing is that they are happy. A non perfect, happy family. Unlike a certain someone 👀. People hate on Aang for spending more time with Tenzin cuz he had to rebuild his nation so he had to teach Tenzin, but yet they say nothing about Toph’s parenting. Aang wasn’t raised by parents so he doesn’t even know what proper parenting is. Toph was raised by a mom and dad and you know how she raised her kids? She raised Lin and just let Su be wild. She made it Lin’s job to look after Su. Toph just left to live her life and made her older daughter take care of her youngest. Now THAT, is bad parenting

I wouldn't say he was a horrible father. He just wasn't a perfect one.

I agree that the Katara we knew from the original series would never stand for her children feeling neglected. My theory is that as a consequence of Aang’s favoritism/neglect, their marriage suffered a great deal of strife. In her old age she’s probably moved past those hard feelings, in favor of taking pride in the people her children became, on top of not wishing to speak ill of her dead husband who she DID LOVE. There were probably just a lot of arguments we as the audience weren’t privy to.

The Legend of Korra writers are definitely guilty of Character Assassination in regards to adult Avatar Aang and his entire family. The LOK was always disturbing to watch when it was in its original TV run.

I started crying when I heard that Bumi And Sokka Would Have Gotten Along If Sokka Was Alive.. this is sad

As a dad of 7 children myself and being blessed to still have my Mother & Father still walking the earth. I can say that all parents fail in some area of raising children. Regardless of money, environment, school, attention, etc their will always be some area that a child will say could have been better. To be a perfect parent simply means to love your children & protect them at all cost & hope when they grow up they'll look back at their life and say I have or had "Great Parents" regardless of their short comings!!!

"Terrible father" is a very strong word i dont agreed to that extent.

Everyone else: talks about the video Me: 2:44 look at those cheekbones my god

I can see how ang could possibly neglect his children when he grew up. However his wife Katara. Would not let him do so it’s not in her nature to let him do whatever he wants she was always the mother figure to him and always let him in the right direction sitting down telling him or if it was right or wrong. It’s just so unrealistic I really hate the legend of Korra just because it destroyed the whole show to me the characters don’t act the same. Of course they got some things right like Toft how she was very open with her child raising things because she didn’t wanna be anything like her parents however in the comics she did make up with her parents and I feel like she would be a lot more grounded after making up with her parents.

Honestly i hate how they wrote aang's future and his relationship with his kids. It just doesn't seem right that he would neglect his other 2 children so much. That's not the aang we know and love

Ok, horrible is a strong word, he just wasn’t a good father.

I know I'm late to the party here, but I feel like the portrayal of Aang and Katara is fairly realistic. Aang felt like he had a legacy to pass on so he had to spend more time with Tenzin. Katara probably saw this and tried to compensate by spending more time with Kya and Bumi. I think she would've understood Aang's need to train Tenzin so thoroughly, so she wouldn't have tried to force him to be with the other kids as much as it would cause him to become overworked and overwhelmed (he is still the Avatar, after all). It's an unfortunate series of events, but it lines up for their characters.

I feel like Aang would of at least treated his kids better then he did in Korra. Even though he “grew up” he would still have been a good dad then only pay attention to Tenzin. Aang would have not neglected Bumi and Kya even if he did he still would have shown them somewhat of attention. I feel like The Legend Of Korra made all the old characters grow up neglectful but in reality that shouldn’t be the case. ALSO TOPH WOULD HAVE DISCIPLINED HER KIDS SO MUCH BETTER Ddkdkdkfjfjfjf.

Aang raised his children like an adult, not his 12 year old self.

I always was under the belief that both aang and katara loved their kids very much.

Im so confused can someone just tell me that aang and katara had a happy life.

I feel like aang neglect is exaggerated in the story. Also him focusing a bit more on tenzin makes sense. We may not like but that can definitely happen. He never outright ignored his other kids he just spent a bit more time with the other air bender in the family to keep it alive.

RANT TIME! I don’t think Aang was taking Tenzin on “vacations” (as Bumi described it), it was most likely air nomad teachings. Not to mention, Aang is still the Avatar and had the weight of his peoples future on his shoulders. So chances are, Tenzin unfortunately got dragged along on these Avatar duties since Aang was the only one who could teach him. Aang being Aang, probably tried to make these situations as bearable as possible for Tenzin, which is why he got to ride the elephant koi. I’m not saying Kya and Bumi’s complaints aren’t valid, but I feel like some people really exaggerated Aang’s parenting capabilities. He did the best he could, and his “best” wasn’t perfect, but he wasn’t a monster either.

Aang: **has children** Aangs children: *ok BoomerAang*

I actually think it's more interesting by making the favourite characters not outright all-perfect. Think about it. None of our parents in the real world is perfect, even the very good ones get complained for favouritism by their children. Even my late dad, whom many people regarded as a good person and highly respected, fell short when it comes to showing no partiality to his children. This just show that parenting isn't easy, especially for Aang who wanted to rebuild his nation, at the same time has his duty as the avatar. That doesn't make him a horrible dad, it just makes him imperfect, which is very human. If the creators made him so perfect, it's not real anymore. I think people should see the imperfections happening in our own lives and in the people we loved before expecting an animated character to be perfect. it's also part of the joy, to love or to hate, otherwise, how boring it would be.

Aang may not have been a great father but Bumi despite being neglected was still a great brother, to be with his siblings bending or not. Bumi could have been influenced by Amon idea of being equal and be at power with his siblings. But he stood by his family no matter what, which is great to watch

Should have made Bumi a firebender, would have raised questions as to who his dad is. 🤔😂

4 factors are neglected in this situation. •1) Both Bumi and Kya actually rejected Aangs teaching and failed to show interest in Airbending culture and heritage. Why would Aang then force his teachings upon his children that aren’t showing interest. •2) Aang had to be Tenzin’s master. He had to spend long amounts of time, years even to help the only other Airbender in the world to become a master in the art. •3) We don’t know what either Aang or Katara were like as parents interacting with their children. What we do know is that looking back at their family’s picture after their arguments, they come to conclusion that they were a happy family, bar not being perfect. •4) These criticisms come at a time of frustration with inflated opinions where Bumi and Kya criticise without acknowledgment of their roles in the situation, alongside inflated criticism of Aang where all the good both Katara and Aang did is not addressed.

Bumi apologizing to Aang(‘s statue) for not being an airbender was such a sad scene. How Aang and Katara could let their son grow up feeling like a failure…I’m sure they tried to be good parents, but I’m judging them for that. Both of them should know what it’s like growing up with unfairly high expectations. Kya also had it tough, though I feel like she got a lot of time to train and discuss water tribe heritage with her mom, and I know Tezin had tons of pressure to be Aang’s airbending legacy, but I think Bumi had it the worst.

Aang loved all his kids equally but the only reason he spent more time with tenzin was to teach tenzin air bending and his culture aang knew that tenzin was gonna be very busy rebuilding the air nation bcz he was the only hope of the air nomad

Hear me out, In Boruto, Naruto tells his wife that he straight up doesn't know how to be a dad to his son, and she (instead of telling him to man up and be a good dad) just lets it slide. Because she loves Naruto too much to stress him about how bad the situation is. Preferring to try and be a sole parent to their kid (at least at FIrst). I can totally see Katara falling into the same mind set with Aang. Justifying it as "well he is the Avatar" and "He needs to be focused on that Job". And tiring to go it alone as a parent.

I don’t think he “failed” his children. I think he is flawed just as anyone is. Even the best of people and parents make errors with their children.

Seems kind of harsh to call Aang's family broken. He and Katara never cheated on each other, never divorced, never had an abusive relationship towards each other or their children. So again, calling his family "broken" is a bit harsh.

I feel like when a mission seems so critical, it makes sense that it would become all that they cared about. Bringing back the air benders was very important to keeping balance. One can loose sight of their own values in pursuit of a mission.

I love how no matter how long this show isnt on the air for (5 years now and 12 years for ATLA) People still argue and discuss. I love how this show is still alive after all this time

The writers had a stroke, that's the only way to justify Korra's canon

Aang wasn't a bad father, and there's nothing wrong with showing him as less than perfect as a parent. The recounts from Bumi and Kya were just that. They were recounts from their perspective as kids and as adults interpreting the meaning of their childhood. Bumi is allowed to feel those feelings but it doesn't take away that Aang and Katara did everything they could to provide for the kids' happiness. I've seen it more as they would like to be included in everything related to the Air Nomad tradition but there are just some things that Tenzin had to do on his own as an airbender. Not to mention, in Book 3, Kya did say "I could never keep those gurus straight, there were like a million of them", and "Remember that long, boring story of the guy who wouldn't eat?" LOL, pretty sure Aang tried to involve his kids in as much Air Nomad history and culture as he could, but there's only so much he could show them without needing them to be able to airbend. Yes, he placed a lot of burden on Tenzin since he was the only airbending child, but again Tenzin took on a lot of that burden himself. We are a product of the choices we make in life. Tenzin as an adult could have chosen to reject his air nomad root, but he didn't. He continued to embrace his responsibility to the air nomad culture even though it prevented him from being in touch spiritually, and he more or less is at peace with it by the time of Jinora's ceremony and the series' end.

I would hate to be born into this universe without bending, i couldn’t even join the police under beifong

Some words from the creators themselves in The Legend of Korra Book 2 commentary: - Mike: “To be clear, we were never trying to say that Aang was a horrible, terrible parent! It’s more about how Kya and Bumi interpreted Aang’s absence. Because he was busy, he was busy being the Avatar. It’s this natural thing where he ended up taking Tenzin around the world because he was the second to last airbender at the time and wanted to make sure his culture continued on. It came out of a place of trying to keep his culture going which was very important to him. Maybe he overlooked spending some quality time with the other kids at one time or another, but it doesn’t mean he was a deadbeat dad.” - Bryan: “Aang just had a hard time dealing with all his responsibilities”. With these words, as well as all the other information that has been revealed about Aang's parenting in related canonical materials (such as the comic Turf Wars, where Kya fondly remembers her father's unwavering support when she came out as homosexual), we can say with assurance that Aang was not a bad father. Was he perfect? Of course not. No father is. But the ultimate takeaway of the Civil Wars episodes was that, despite not being at all times 'fairy tale', Aang's family was happy and full of love.

Bumi : hay dad, what was the worst day of your life? Aang: that's hard to pin down, there was the time I let the moon die, the time I saw the corpses of my friends and mentors at air temple and then the time I was literally murdered by a lighting strike in the back. Bumi:..wha? Aang: I walked it off. Bumi: okay, so what was your worse day after the war? Aang: oh, that's was the day I was almost murdered by a blood bending criminal. Bumi:...wha? Aang: I walked it offf

I haven't watched The Legend of Korra, but this made me sad :(

The Legend of Korra just didn't have the same feeling even when the old characters came around. It just didn't work well

In your last video where you discussed the possibility that as the avatars reincarnate they become capable of handling the regrets of the previous avatar. Which is why I find it interesting that Aang never truely got to rebuild the air nation (which is something I am sure he regrets) but Korra's actions were able to restore the air nation and rebuild it in ways Aang could only dream of.

"Avatar is a kids show" Yeah.....

Imma be honest this sucks I watched the Netflix avatar last air bender and finding this out disappoints me. That saddest part of all this is reality and that's how life works.

I'm like a year late to the party, but if there's a big a gap as we think there is between the kids (about 5 years each), then by the time Tenzin was old enough to do things like giant koi surfing, Bumi probably would've been a late teenager. I have a little brother 11 years younger than me, he has gone on vacations with my parents without me or my older brother. But in turn we went on vacations without him, before he was born. I'm curious about the years before Tenzin, because I can imagine that Aang was super busy building Republic City and all that, so he was probably neglectful there. I also got the feeling from those episodes that Kaya and Bumi didn't really blame Tenzin for getting so much attention - they kind of understood the stakes and the pressure. And not gonna lie, I don't think I'd want all that pressure on me. I love knowing that these characters didn't grow up to be perfect parents or perfect adults. It humanizes them. I say the same about Luke and Han and Leia in the Star Wars sequel trilogy. Sometimes, people don't live happily ever after with nonstop sunshine and rainbows. We put them on such pedestals, but they're all flawed characters. And I'm glad to be allowed to see that.

Korra and ATLA are NOT written by the same people, thats why is so disconnected from the original characters. To me this is just a big cliche. Why all protagonists have to be bad parents if they make a sequel?? Naruto, Harry Potter? It's like people who write this just wants to justify their own parenting issues

Aang’s adult representation in Avatar the Legend Of Korra doesn’t count to me, because in my personal head canon, TLOK never existed. It’s just one of Aang’s bad dreams.

Me After watching *Avatar: The Last Airbender* 👉 “Aang and Katara are gonna be literally the best parents ever!” Me After watching this video 👉 “You have ruined my hopes and dreams good sir...”

He's still better than most real world fathers I am aware of.

I just realized we have no idea who aangs parents are

I don’t think showing favoritism makes Aang a “horrible father.” I mean it’s shitty, I know that from experience. But I don’t consider my parents horrible for sometimes playing favorites. Aang had a lot riding on him and a hundred years of unprocessed grief to work through, he did his best and his children obviously loved him and had fond memories of him despite his shortcomings.

That doesn’t make him a bad father he just wants to make sure a whole nation would still live on

After aang and katara got married, there's a section in the comics where aang shares the ways of his people with this fan club that admired the air nomads and their ancient ways- I forget the name of the fan club. But it was at this moment where we saw aang share the ways of his people to a group of non airbenders. Then suddenly that side of Ang is completely written off when he becomes a parent. I find it hard to believe the Aang would grow up and do the opposite of what he demonstrated in the comics in the LOK. 🤔 Therefore I believe that the writers of Lok wrote away this loving trait of aang because they simply wanted to. And the fact that the writers in the Lok are different from the writers of the original Avatar series reinforces this point.

To be fair, such favouritism comes from a traumatic experience of his entire kin being subject to genocide, and the crushing responsibility of the repopulating of the air nation.

I can understand why aang would favor tenzin, based solely on his elation at having airbending passed on. Considering he had only one person to see his old lessons. It can blind even the most worldly heart with the definitive skills of his people being part of the world. It happens. I'm not being critical, I enjoy your content. Just a thought

The way they depicted 'Daddy Ang' just felt off to me. From a realism perspective it was understandable and plausible, however the way the show ended I imagined Ang as being more mindful of his past I guess and more grateful to have finally gotten what he really wanted in the end; which was just to be with Katara and be able to choose his own path for real without anything life or death hanging over his head. I guess I imagined him to be the one who would retain at least a bit of his care free nature especially with his kids. I feel personally he would've just enjoyed having a kid as well and that he would trust in the Universe that more Airbenders would rise. Idk it just seemed like he gained so much knowledge throughout the show for so little of it to be present in his future life. Hope that made sense lol. In the end I still love Ang always, i always connected with his character and compassionate nature.

Great video!!!

finally someone that understands why i hate the legend of korra but love the last airbender

Hearing about how Ang was as a father was surprising but it made sense. I think Ang suffered from the amount of pressure or close to the amount of pressure his son did. They both had to saddle the rebirth of an entire culture on their backs, I dont think Ang neglected his other kids intentionally it just so happened to happen. Ang knew once he passed which was unfortunate for him to be at a fairly young age, that if he taught his son nothing about Air nomad culture, he to would have failed as the avatar and the last air bender. I do not think Katara was quiet in that, I imagine there bing a couple of arguments. I dont think it requires explanation about how they would happen and why Latara must have if not later on stayed quiet. I think Ang regrets his parenting much like Toph as she told her daughters that as long as they did not hate her she was happy. I imagine Ang must have felt the same way, but having to say they to your children knowing how awful you were as a parent must be extremely painful. I know what it is like to shoulder a huge familial burden and pressure and it not easy. Knowing what my parents went through I can see both sides of it, its hard on everyone. It was really interesting to see how Ang had turned out as an adult. As well as all of the team Avatar. I wish we could see more though more so on screen but I will for sure look for those books.

I just act like the legend of Kora doesn’t exist! lol 😂

They need to make an adult series of all them starting with Aang and Katara’s wedding day that would make me happy
