Monk Gyatso (dad): Aang grows angry and out of control with sorrow when he
realizes what the fire nation did to his home, friends and family. All of us have power in the choices we make,
and we need to be careful to not let our anger or other strong feelings break
our self-control and say or do hurtful things.
We also see good examples of loyalty and friendship and
their power, as Katara is able to sooth Aang as she tells him that they are his
family now. Being a good friend means
you comfort others, encourage them, and help them meet their challenges.
In the Zuko story, we see what true dishonor is when General
Zhao tries to attack Zuko after he has been fairly defeated, and even
spared. This is cowardly, and shows
Zhao’s lack of control. We see mercy and
honor in Zuko: the seeds of goodness!

Hi, as a 26 year old who will soon to be married and inevitably be a father, i'd like to share that i think its great that you use this show to teach your children life lessons and morals. I will eventually do the same. the show is definitely very entertaining, but its life lessons are even better than the entertainment it brings. cheers!
