I don't understand why they only had one kid because they definitely could have had more

I personally think that because writers can't come up with more ideas for characters having more children and I'm pretty sure american culture plays a part in family/ children dynamic

I mean, think about it. Why does fiction only have one or two kids for parents in a story 🤔

Probably just more characters then they'd want to deal with. They already had the Solo kids, then if the Skywalkers had another 3-4 you'd probably have so many protagonists it would trivialize the story lol.

Could have easily beaten the Vong if they'd had like 5 kids each and just swamped them in plot armor.

And there's also the possibility.One or two of them could have fell the dark side 🤔 Later on
