this leads me to beleive that a large number of the air nomad children may have been orphans and abandons think about it people of the other nation have a child they dont want cant look after what ever in the time of peace would it not make sence to leave the child with the nation of people known to be the smartest safest and most peacful loving of all the nations to be raised oh by the way as extension of my theory normal people would with a great deal of skill and natural talent should be able to learn to bend more than one element seen as bending is learnt, but learning all four would not be possible as learning an opposite style is so difficult for the Avatar it sould be impossible for a normal human so ie a person could be one of the following hybrid benders (hybrid bender would be good at both but master of neither
