Hi June, The show half kids, as you clearly explain, only adds the children which are the offspring of one of the couple in focus.
There are occasions when you want to add others because they actually belonged to a particular household. To do this, you have to add the parents of that household as a second set of parents (adopted, foster, ...) In your situation, you may not want to do that. If they never lived together, then it isn't really appropriate. However, it's the only way to get all the children you mention on the one screen.
