People seem to be forgetting that the ability to remove peoples bending is a form of bending that has been lost for a good reason. It's very dangerous.

If Aang did try to teach Bumi how to energy bend what purpose would it serve to give him such a dangerous power that could be misused and even harm his own child?

Also, people can't just pick up the ability to bend and learn any form of bending they want they are born with it. People are making the assumption that Bumi would have had the inherant ability to be an Energy Bender which could be unlikely since his parents were both an Airbender and a Water Bender. He could have been born a non-bender since both Kitaras parents were non benders so it's in his bloodline.

I think for now the best thing to do is just wait because the show has drifed away from Amon as the antagonist for season one so there may yet to be more characters introduced in season two who may very well be Amon.
