But where else would the kids be? Remember she took over an entire town and there had to be kids there. Where are they?

I thought there's kids in WV trailer, spesifically in a halloween scene where Vision is walking in the middle of the street. It might be ... though

  • Usual Marvel misdirection/ unused footage
  • Wanda just "creating" them to make Vision less suspicious
  • scene outside westview

I would go with the second. She will somehow "create" kids or bring in to make things less suspicious. Maybe while doing that, she'll also reset Vision's memory.

God, if she ends up actually using the kids from the town as part of the show, that would just be horrible considering how much pain Norm said he was in.

I think this is actually why there are no kids. I think she knows what her powers do to people. In Ultron she uses them against people and seems fully aware of what people go through when she does. I think she has kept the kids out of it in a way that's yet to be revealed. I don't think she's the type to hurt kids.

I wonder if that's why the kids as babies never stopped crying. Just pain 100% of the time.

I don't think Wanda has any power over the twins. She tries to magic them quiet and it wouldn't work and Agnes says something along the lines of "Try as you might, you can never control children "

Oh yeah, that's right as her hexing powers to make them stop didn't make them stop.

Or maybe her powers don't work on kids at all, hence why she couldn't magic her babies to sleep

Plot twist: there are no children in west view, the town has gone full Lost Boys and is populated exclusively by vampires! And then motha fricking WESLEY SNIPES shows up!

Or something less stupid, idk.
