why do we take it so biological? Katara's parents and Sokka weren't waterbenders, Toph's parents weren't earthbenders, Ursa ,grand-daughter of Roku and mother of Zuko and Azula, also wasn't firebener and so on... i think that the bending skills dont pass from parents to children, maybe there is something about the "energy within yourself" or something like that... if this was something genetic, then why Tenzin isn't a waterbender as well? IMHO
